THE HAGUE, Jan 21 : The International Criminal Court on Thursday unveiled 70 charges of war crimes against notorious Lord's Resistance Army commander Dominic Ongwen, including keeping sex slaves and recruiting child soldiers.
"For well over a decade until his arrest in January 2015, Dominic Ongwen was one of the most senior commanders in the LRA," prosecutor Benjamin Gumpert told the court. The prosecution alleges that from 2002 to 2005, Ongwen "bears significant responsibility" for "terrifying attacks" in northern Uganda when civilians were treated by the rebel group as "the enemy".     ?AFP
