International court issues warning against intimidation after receiving threats

THE International Criminal Court (ICC) office of the prosecutor issued a warning today against intimidation, saying its officers are being threatened.
The court said: “The office is aware that there is significant public interest in its investigations, and it welcomes comments, communication of concerns, and engagement in its activities from state and elected officials, non-governmental organisations, scholars and activists.
“The office seeks to engage constructively with all stakeholders whenever such dialogue is consistent with its mandate under the Rome Statute to act independently and impartially.”
