genocide. the sudanese leader was greeted with a hero's welcome in khartoum by hundreds of supporters. he fled south africa, avoiding a warrant for his arrest by the international criminal court. his departure is a blow to the campaign to capture him, and he's accused of war crimes. as a member of the i.c.c. south africa is obligated by anyone. in the past a number of african countries have not cooperated with the a.c.c. accusing them of bias to leaders. safely home and out of reach of the courts. the sudanese president wanted by the criminal court left south africa after attending an african union summit despite a high court order that he should stay in the country until they ruled on whether or not he should be arrested.
9:03 pm
>> the impact of his living can be regarded as the ends of justice or contempt. he is a member of the united nations. apart from being a member of the au. and being the head of state, his country is being part of the united nations. the court was ordered to investigate how basheer returned to sudan. obligations were upheld to the i.c.c., the government ignored the rule of law in favour of an agreement with the african union that sitting heads of state should not be arrested. >> this is in line with sentiment that the i.c.c. targets african states and lacks credibility. >> this is 2015 not 1715. the concept of a european funded ngo, trying to enforce a
9:04 pm
european directed and funded course forcing black africans to send other black africans to europe in chains is incdible travesty. >> the au intend to set up an african court of justice. there's no indication if the court would take up the allegations against basheer jonathan betts joins us with a closer look at basheer, and the charges at the center of the controversy. >> omar basheer is the only head of state wanted on genocide charges. he seized power in a coup, and four years later was appointed phe was elected this year with 90% of the vote. he has been a wanted man since 2009, when the international criminal court based in netherlands issued an arrest warrant for him. he's accused of war crimes and

9:07 pm
arrested him. does he care about the i.c.c. arrest warrant is this. >> indications are that he cares. he can't get on a plane without having to look over his shoulder, he had to change travel perhaps, and the exit from south africa is not under conditions that you should exit a country from. >> under those circumstances for sure. >> as we heard in the story, there's antagonism the african union, the arab leek. it's accused of being, in effect, that they shouldn't have issued the arrest warrant. they talked about the i.c.c. being irrelevant. given what we are seeing do
9:08 pm
they have a point? >> i think the i.c.c. relevance is rest in the fact that basheer had to leave the country. >> it's failed to bring many people to justice. >> it's not the i.c.c.'s responsibility to prand. apprehend. they issue the warrant and it's up to the political leaders. >> they won't do it. what is the point of having the court. >> the law gets this in the end of the if we had this conversation about war criminals. they would have seemed like finaling tifs from justice. today they are standing trial. >> that was a special court, specifically addressing yugoslavia, the former yugoslavia. when it comes to the i.c.c. it has been cases against african leaders, which have gone nowhere. >> i think the counter
9:09 pm
prosecutor makes an interesting point saying you can look at it as cases against perpetrators, or those standing up for ar can victims, what we are -- african victims, we are hearing from some victims. there's only one view. if you speak as i have done for numbers of interviews with darfuries themselves, they see the court as hugely relevant and supportive of justice. >> it's an important point that the prosecutor makes. talking about darfur something you know well having spent time in sudan, and writing about it, do you think if the atmosphere had been what we saw a decade ago, that this wouldn't have happened, he wouldn't have been allowed to leave easily. >> it's possible. the pressure from the global public might have been brave enough.
