5:02 pm
investigate why he wasn't kept in the country. he is known on an international arrest warned and wanted by the international criminal court claiming he committed atrocities during the darfur conflict. more details from johannesburg. >> the south african government has five days to respond. bashir was in south africa for an african union summit. allowing for his arrest by the south african government, despite that, bashir left on monday and since then a high court has said south africa's south africa's conduct has not been consistent to that. in line with south africa's
5:03 pm
sentiment as well as with the african union to say it wants to pull away from the international criminal court where bashir wanted for crimes against humidity. >> and earlier a representative told barnaby phillips that they are looking into whether south africa flouted the directions of the international criminal court. >> which they ignored with impunity. >> and that has been made very well to them. now it would be for the chamber of the international criminal court whether there was a noncompliance by south africa and whether such a finding is made it should be conveyed to the united nations security council for any measures they deem appropriate to ensure this cooperation. >> but sudan's foreign minister
5:04 pm
was critical of attempts to send bashir to the icc. >> translator: these attempts are meant to disturb ar our harmony and we believe that the sudan government will have a firm, strict instance against any country taking such a decision. simply for this and that, it is a matter of sovereignty. we are a sovereign state the president is elected by the people of sudan. and you have been all following all these statements of lame and meaningless. >> executive director of the global center for responsibility to protect which focuses on protecting populations from genocide and crimes against humanity. thanks very much indeed for being with us on the program. given that south africa has been earlier indicated that they
5:05 pm
would be willing to turn over bashir how surprised are you? >> a little surprised and disappointed i should say. this was an opportunity for south africa to be send the message to the world that it stands by the be icc c.c. and the commitments it's -- international criminal court and the commits it's played to international criminal law. i don't think it's been a good day for south africa but a pretty good day for icc which shows he can run but cannot hide from the indictment of the international criminal court. >> the african union has made it very clear that it believes the icc is biased against africans and doesn't want to be able to hand over any africans to the
5:06 pm
ike. does it mean that any african nation wouldn't be prepared to arrest bashir and he will arrest be able to escape arrest? >> i think the world is getting smaller and smaller for bashir. let's keep in mind a lot of these african union states are part of the international criminal court, 34 of them. keep in mind six of the eight case he involving africans in front of the international criminal court were actually referred by those african states themselves to the international criminal court. so there actually is a lot of support for the international criminal court as well and when we talk about africans and whether it's antiafrican or whatever, what about the.200,000 people that have died in darfur, and the international criminal court believes that bashir is responsible for those deaths.
5:07 pm
>> let's remind folks what it is that bashir is accused of. >> well the indictment is for genocide crimes against humanity in the early 2000s in an estimated 200,000 have died, that war is still going on. there have been u.n. security council resolutions that haven't been fully complied with. although the icc indictment is focused on darfur, also in sudan is the great neglected atrocities in the world the situation in blue nile, again as in darfur, the owner court is engaged in prosecution of crime against civilians. >> isn't this a huge set back that they firmly believed i guess that south africa would be
5:08 pm
prepared to carry out that order and they would be prepared to hand him over? this is a set back isn't it? they're no closer to getting their hands on bashir now than they were yesterday. >> yes it's a.disappointment, clearly a disappointment, let's be slum clear bashir went to south africa on the understanding that he would be operating on impunity, at the end of the day he had to cut his visit short and exit by the back exit and it's not clear how he got out of the country and he had to leave under threat of possible arrest. that's not a good day for him. i think i.t. shows the sense of international justice is -- it shows the sense of international justice is growing. >> thank you very much for joining us from the u.n. in new york. >> thank you. >> thousands of syrians have fled across the border into

5:20 pm
they gone to jail? have they paid a price for crimes they've committed? it is the secretary-general's intention to name the countries of origin of troops who have committed sexual abuse in his next report that's coming out next year. but again the relationship cannot be adversarially it needs to be a -- adversarial it needs to be a partnership and a lot of the responsibility falls on member states. >> the former florida governor jeb bush has launched his campaign for twean presidential election. both his father and brother were presidents and he is the be bookies favorite to win the election. record amount of money to fund his campaign. the election to succeed barack obama is still 17 months away. >> the presidency should not be passed on from one liberal to the next.
5:21 pm
so here's what it comes down to: our country's on a very bad course and the question is, what are we going to do about it? the question for me -- the question for me is, what am i going to do about it? and i've decided i'm a candidate for president of the united states of america. [cheering and applause] >> live now to al jazeera's andy gallagher who is in miami for us. andy what else was in jeb bush's message to his supporters? >> well, if there's one sound byte to take away from his first speech of his campaign it's this. jeb bush said pretty early on i know that i can do it because i've already done it. what he's talking about there is his two terms as florida's governor where he said he created jobs, he created common core values in schools, no child
5:22 pm
left behind, and really, really that's what he is running on, running on experience as two terms florida governor. this is a man who's now seen very much as a moderate within the republican party and as you look at his campaign poster, you it says jeb. no notice of his family name. that's good for some people and bad for others because of the bush legacy. but he did talk a lot about america's direction and the direction he will take. he didn't say that president obama was weak on foreign policy that he wants to take control away from big government and go down to spaller government. it was obviously a rouseing be rousing campaign at miami dade college. he is married to a hispanic
5:23 pm
woman, within the party he is seen as a moderate, someone who wants immigration reform, someone who is soft, on it not on his own ten other candidates some of whom are much younger. in the weeks and months ahead he will have a hard time. just last week he had a shakeup in his campaign group he fired some people and rehired some people. a couple of weeks ago he tripped up on a question, he would have raidiraq as his brother would if he had the information he wouldn't haveth vaided, the bush legacy is one of the biggest challenges he will face. even before the campaign started today jeb bush has repeatly said, i am my own man and he's got a long way to prove that's the case. >> he faces many other people of course in the race to be the
5:24 pm
republicans nominee. but he is among bookies favorite and we could see yet again a bush versus clinton campaign for presidency. >> it is, and frankly that's disappointing a lot of people, that amongst the two parties there are in this country that all we can possibly do is come up with a clinton versus bush. of course hillary clinton's husband served as president and of course jeb bush's father and brother served as president. there is this dyanistic question of yet seeing another bush in the white house. has to convince republican party members that he is the candidate that's best suited to win in 2016. that's a difficult battle because of the issue of immigration reform. 20 people got up and made a lot
5:25 pm
of noise protesting immigration reform. i'm going omake these people happy, i warrant to give 12 million people a pathway to citizenship. that's not going to sit well amongful republican voters. >> andy thank you very much. >> niernlings, killed in the northeast past of part of the country. -- nigerians killed in the northeast part of the country. boko haram has been behind similar attacks in that area. at least 20 people have been killed in a series of explosion in chad. witness he say suicide bombers on motorcycles simultaneously tacked two buildings in the capital agina. chad has taken a leading role in regional efforts to confront boko haram. update from the capital.
