Judge notes that SA, which failed to arrest Sudanese war crimes suspect Omar al-Bashir in a 2015 visit, was also not referred to the UN
Jordan had cited head of state immunity as the reason for not arresting Sudanese war crimes suspect Omar al-BashirThe Hague — The International Criminal Court will not refer Jordan to the UN Security Council for its failure to arrest Sudanese war crimes suspect Omar al-Bashir when he visited Amman in 2017, judges said on Monday, reversing an earlier decision.
Jordan had cited head of state immunity — which is customary under international law — as the reason for not arresting Bashir in 2017, but the ICC court said immunity no longer applied to Bashir due to Sudan's alleged war crimes.
