- ICC prosecutor drops charges against Darfur rebel leader
The ICC prosecutor recommended dropping charges against Darfur rebel leader Abdallah Banda for a 2007 attack on African Union peacekeepers, citing deteriorated evidence and unavailable witnesses. The case, weakened over a decade, had no substantial grounds for prosecution, though ICC prosecutors emphasized continuing investigations into Darfur crimes. Former Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir remains wanted for his role in the 2003 Darfur conflict.
