The Hague (AFP) - The International Criminal Court's chief prosecutor on Friday dropped a case against Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta alleging crimes against humanity, saying she did not have enough evidence to take him to trial.
"The Prosecution withdraws the charges against Mr Kenyatta," Fatou Bensouda said in a document filed at the Hague-based court, adding "the evidence has not improved to such an extent that Mr Kenyatta's alleged criminal responsibility can be proven beyond reasonable doubt."
