- Two professors are questioning mandate of ICC in taking over Kenyan poll case
Mr Moreno-Ocampo went before the pre-trial chamber at the end of last November seeking permission to start investigating the plotters and executors of the election violence in which 1,133 people were killed and another 650,000 uprooted from their homes.
There have been reports that the government intends to use international lawyers to challenge Mr Moreno-Ocampo’s request at The Hague.
However, government officials have denied the claims.
