ICC Should Investigate Darfur War Crimes – Rights Group

The campaign group Human Rights Watch has called on the International Criminal Court to investigate war crimes committed in the western Sudanese region of Darfur, including the killings of dozens of civilians.

It said this happened during an ethnically motivated attack on a town; homes were looted and set ablaze.

The rights group says Sudan’s paramilitary Rapid Support Forces and allied Arab militias carried out the attack in late May which officials said left 97 people dead.
