The International Criminal
Court Judge Geoffrey A. Henderson
has replaced Judge Chile Eboe-Osuji
on the bench at the Trial Chamber V
(b) in the case against President
Uhuru Kenyatta.
This might be a move to play with the Uhuru's defense team psychological set up.
The ICC Presidency said the decision
followed Osuji’s request.
“On 30 January 2014, the Presidency
of the International Criminal Court
( ICC ) decided to reconstitute Trial
Chamber V(b) in the case The
Prosecutor v. Uhuru Muigai
Kenyatta, following the request of
Judge Chile Eboe-Osuji. As of 1
February 2014, Judge Geoffrey A.
Henderson will replace Judge Chile Eboe-Osuji on the bench”, read the statement sent to newsrooms.
Trial Chamber V(b) will hence be
composed of Judge Kuniko Ozaki,
Judge Robert Fremr and Judge
Geoffrey A. Henderson.
Henderson was elected during the
twelfth session of the Assembly of
States Parties to the Rome Statute
(ASP) in November 2013 for a term that will run until 10 March 2021.
He was sworn in on 12 December
2013 at a ceremony held at the seat of the Court in The Hague
(Netherlands).
To someone with a critical mind must realise that this isn't just a "request " by Osuji. Much more must be hidden under the carpet. Uhuru defense team should be very cautious!
President Kenyatta is facing crimes
against humanity charges following
the 2007/2008 post election violence.
He has been charged alongside his
deputy William Ruto and radio
presenter Joshua Arap Sang.
