The ICC wrote to Prof Muigai on Thursday informing him of the decision. Regulation 73.1 of the court’s rules requires that the ICC prepares an approved list of counsel to ensure suspects receive the highest level of legal representation at the court.

Prof Muigai will also be eligible to represent other suspects facing war crime trials such as Congolese militia leader Laurent Nkunda.

    kenya cannot be used as a litmus test...the states' money is everybodys'money .Pple fought and the same money should be used to create peace and stability and let elders sit under a tree the African way and sort out the mess instead of seeking some mzungu.

    @mishuki,why should the state pay for what individuals did as crime? State's money is peoples money. let these individuals pay for the crimes they did from their own pockets and let kenyans know who did what and justice be done

    I think this process should be halted...we cannot be in a merry-go round of hatrecy...let the state compensate the victims of PEV.There is no uniformity of justice around the world.

    Why is there panic. If as a leader you did not sponsor the PEV, as they have all declared, then what is there to worry? Only those who are guilty should be panicking! Sadly, Omar is right. Kibaki shall not hand over any ministers to Ocampo, mta-do?
