✍️ The International Criminal Court has given the greenlight for the first in absentia hearing against Ugandan rebel leader Joseph Kony, allowing prosecutors to present evidence in September despite his unknown whereabouts.
👉 The ICC has scheduled a confirmation of charges hearing against Kony in September
👉 Kony faces dozens of counts of war crimes and crimes against humanity
👉 Kony's lawyers argued that his fair trial rights would be violated, but the court has implemented robust safeguards
👉 The decision is seen as a trial balloon for the court to move forward with other cases where the suspect is not in custody
