Gbagbo was wanted by the ICC and david mark and other will also be wanted very soon by the ICC. Therey are committing crime against humanity. And they will be charge very soon.





One year ago, after months of post-electoral crisis and several weeks of war, President Laurent Gbagbo was arrested by rebel forces, aided by UN and French troops. Mr. Gbagbo was delivered to The Hague by Côte d’Ivoire, becoming the first former head of state to be charged by the ICC. The ICC’s most politically senior target had been Sudan’s president Omar al-Bashir, who is still in office and continues to travel freely through much of Africa.

On 3 October 2011, the Pre-Trial Chamber (III) of the ICC authorized the commencement of an investigation in Côte d’lvoire, regarding (i) crimes committed since 28 November 2010, and, (ii) any continuing crimes that may be committed in the future, provided that the contextual element of the continuing crimes is the same.

Following this authorization, in December 2011, the ICC charged Côte d’lvoire’s former president Mr. Laurent Gbagbo with four counts of crimes against humanity under Articles 7 and 8 of the Rome Statute. Gbagbo was charged as bearing “individual criminal responsibility, as indirect co-perpetrator” for crimes allegedly committed during violence that left some 3,000 people dead following November 2010 elections.

This was, in principle, good news for the fight against impunity. Elise Keppler, Human Rights Watch, said “the court was playing its part to show that even those at the highest levels of power cannot escape justice when implicated in grave crimes”.

However, several questions remain.

ICC’s contested jurisdiction

Côte d’Ivoire is, as of today, not a member of the ICC. It signed but it did not ratify the Rome Statute. On 1 October 2003, under Mr. Gbagbo’s administration, the country lodged an ad hoc declaration accepting the ICC’s jurisdiction (under Article 12.3 of the Rome Statute) with respect to alleged crimes committed from 19 September 2002. The ICC’s jurisdiction would cover all war crimes and crimes against humanity “for an unspecified period of time”. Full cooperation with the Court was also promised.

After November 2010 presidential elections, on 14 December 2010, the new president, Mr. Ouattara confirmed the declaration. By way of a letter addressed to the ICC, he accepted ICC’s jurisdiction regarding all crimes committed since March 2004. Further, in May 2011, Mr. Outtara addressed a new letter to the ICC requesting the investigation of the most serious crimes, but limited to those committed since 28 November 2010.

After seven years of silence following Mr. Gbagbo’s declaration, the ICC authorized an investigation in Côte d’Ivoire, but limited to crimes committed since 28 November 2010.

Firstly, it should be noted that ad hoc declarations refer concrete situations to the ICC. They do not imply general or permanent recognition of jurisdiction, only to the situation deferred or those facts connected or being part of that situation’s context. The ICC’s justification of such connection between the 2010 facts (i.e. post-election violence) and those of 2002 was certainly poor.

Second, as Judge Silvia Fernandez de Gurmendi expressed in her dissenting opinion, reasonable doubts could be raised regarding the temporal scope of the investigation, i.e. limiting to facts which occurred after 28 November 2010. This decision was taken on the basis that (i) the vast majority of the supporting materials provided by the Prosecutor focused on the most recent post-electoral crisis; and (ii) post electoral violence had “reached unprecedented levels”.

The ICC’s decision was made despite the existence of information available on crimes allegedly committed since 2002 (and the Prosecutors’ support to investigating crimes since 2002). In addition, jurisdiction shall be limited to “continuing crimes”. This term implies the risk that war crimes and crimes against humanity that might not be considered as “continuing crimes” might not be investigated. A broader approach would have better served the preventative impact of the ICC’s intervention in a situation that the Court qualifies as volatile.

But on 22 February 2012, the Pre-Trial Chamber (III ) of the ICC decided to expand the temporary scope of its investigation, so as to include crimes allegedly committed between 19 September 2002 (when an attempted coup d’Etat against President Gbagbo took place, launching a pro-Ouattara rebellion) and 28 November 2010 (post elections violence). The Prosecutor has now provided further information regarding potentially relevant crimes committed between 2002 and 2010 by both pro-government and pro-rebel forces.

So now the ICC understands that the violence in the period between 2002 and 2010, although reaching varying levels of intensity at different locations and at different times, is to be treated as a single situation and therefore should be treated as an ongoing crime scene.

Reactions

The ICC has been accused of fragmentary approach. The accusation was fuelled by the fact that the ICC had followed Mr. Ouattara’s approach of investigating only the most serious crimes “committed since 28 November 2010”. But also, by the silence of the ICC regarding crimes allegedly committed by the pro-Ouattara Forces républicaines (FRCI). The United Nations Operation in Cote d’Ivoire (UNOCI) and human rights organizations such as the International Federation Human Rights, and Amnesty International pointed out that the FRCI participated in the massacres of Duekoué in March 2011 and have widely documented extensive abuses committed by both pro-Gbagbo forces and pro-Ouattara forces.

It would seem that both presidents saw in the ICC a potential tool against their political opponent. Mr. Gbagbo’s mistake is perhaps failing to realize that the ICC was barely functional in 2003, having only been established in mid-2002: But time has now passed. The Gbagbo case is scheduled to start in June and it may be the first case argued by the new Chief Prosecutor, Ms Bensouda, replacing Moreno-Ocampo.

Reactions in Côte d’Ivoire to court’s decision to expand the temporal scope of investigations have been positive. The president of the Ivorian Human Rights and Politics Foundation (FIDHOP) described the court’s decision as courageous and as a sign of fair justice. The chief of the Front populaire ivoirien (FPI, the political party of Laurent Gbagbo) welcomed the expansion of the jurisdiction, saying it was in line with Ivoirians expectations. “We expect impartial justice”, he said. In fact, the court’s move has been seen as a victory for Mr. Gbagbo, as Ouattara’s partisans wanted an investigation limited to 2010 post elections violence. But the chief of the political coalition Forces Nouvelles of Côte d’Ivoire (FNCI, which integrates the ex rebel group Forces Nouvelles once leaded by Mr. Soro, the former Prime Minister who was appointed president of the national assembly on 12 March – the second most powerful position in the country after the President) also claims that justice is being served. However, he argued, the fact that some Gbagbo has been accused doesn’t mean that members of the FNCI need now to be prosecuted.

Human rights groups allege that both sides have were involved in crimes committed in the post-election violence of 2010. NGOs have been calling for Mr. Ouattara’s potential responsibility in violence, accusing the ICC of pursuing “victor’s justice” by prosecuting Gbagbo alone. Allegations have been made over the possible involvement by Ouattara officials in the violence, including Prime Minister Soro. Chief Prosecutor Moreno-Ocampo is on record saying that both sides committed crimes during the 2010 violence and that both sides are being investigated. Will Mr. Ouattara, who has assured full cooperation wit the Court, keep that promise in the event the ICC opens a case against his partisans (such as Mr. Soro, who commanded rebel forces suspected of committing crimes)?

The ICC’s jurisdiction in the African country raises in addition the question of complementarity. According to Mr. Ouattara’s declaration addressed to the ICC, the country does not have sufficient capacity and the necessary structures to pursue such proceedings.

Are Ivorian judges and institutions not capable of prosecuting those most responsible within their own jurisdiction? In fact, proceedings are being held at a national level, including against close allies of Mr. Gbagbo. In February 2012, international arrest warrants were issued against 13 senior officials of the former regime of Mr. Gbagbo living in exile, who are accused of having participated in violence between December 2010 and April 2011. Benin and Cameroun have promised cooperation with Ivorian authorities, and Ouattara repeatedly promised to bring to justice anyone implicated in crimes committed during the post-election period, but in reality little progress appears to have been achieved. In particular, there is a lack of domestic accountability efforts to prosecute forces allied with President Ouattara.

Peace and justice in Côte d’Ivoire

The challenge of fairness must also be weighed against the possibility of further violence. The ICC proceedings, especially any which target the sitting president and members of his government, risk throwing the country into chaos again. Cote d’Ivoire remains a politically fragile country.

For the crisis in Côte d’Ivoire did not start with the 2010 elections. It is rooted in history. The 2010 election was supposed to help bringing stability to the country, but instead it led to the renewal of violence leaving some 3,000 people dead.

Mr. Ouattara’s swearing as President on May 21 of last year officially ended the political crisis. But instability remained. In February of this year, the head of the UN operation in Côte d’Ivoire (ONUCI) openlly sought the cooperation of the FPI (Mr. Gbagbo’s party), in order to build peace in the country. This was the first of several meetings that are to be held in order to launch dialogue with all politic actors within a reconciliation process.

However, the way forward is not an easy one. On 26 February, following partial legislative elections in 12 constituencies, new violence caused five deaths. On 21 March, the UN Human Rights Council discussed the report of the UN Independent Expert on the situation of human rights in Côte d’Ivoire, Doudou Diene. Diene noted that most of human rights violations resulted “less from the state’s complicity than from its failure to prevent them, because of the difficulty of reforming the security sector.” Diene implicated rogue government forces in 27 cases of torture and inhumane and degrading treatment and 22 cases of arbitrary arrests.

Further, the Security Council is soon expected to consider the final report of the panel of experts regarding the suitability of the sanctions regime currently in place towards Côte d’Ivoire (which includes arms embargo, individual sanctions as travel bans, freezing of assets against three Ivorian individuals and embargo on the export of diamond), in view of the current political situation and steps taken by the government to consolidate state authority, establish the rule of law throughout the country and the implementation of the transitional justice mechanisms that are being set in motion, including the ICC indictment of Mr. Gbagbo, further ICC investigations, the prosecution for economic crimes and the Dialogue, Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

In short, the ICC prosecution is taking place in a complex and volatile environment with a variety of local and international actors. Impunity for crimes committed in Côte d’Ivoire must be addressed. Seeking the truth and rendering a fair justice is the only way to achieve reconciliation. Ivoirians have expressly entrusted this task to the ICC: rendering justice shall require that the ICC Prosecutor investigate and hold accountable those most responsible from all parties.

this is a beautiful face of one of their victim

Many victim of David mark, senators and house of rep unrepented heart.. even when they knewn the type of nation they are from.
