News from the ICC on Friday that the trial of Thomas Lubanga can begin again.
The appeals judges were pretty clear that the prosecutor had overstepped the mark by refusing to obey judicial orders and identify an intermediary working with prosecutors in Ituri. But they were also clear that the trial judges had overreacted someowhat by staying the trial, saying a judicial reprimand to the prosecutor would have been more appropriate. So, the trial is back on.
This is a piece I did for the Times last week on the Lubanga case and its problems.
