when he was in jordan and twenty seventeen now it comes down to points like did omar al bashir enjoy head of state immunity because you dawn is not a signatory to the international criminal court well that the judges were unanimous and said no he did not enjoy that immunity and therefore jordan again failed to hand him over but there is now there's no sort of consequence let's say if you will and i think the bigger picture here in the bigger question that it raises is the role of the international criminal court what kind of power does it have to bring these kinds of leaders that it accuses. of crimes against humanity war crimes and genocide to account of course at this point in time we know is in a high security prison in sudan the military said it won't be handing him over here it says it intends to try him themselves organizations aid organizations n.g.o.s calling for his extradition but again the court remains powerless to do that unless member states or saddam decides to hand him over this is a case that's been the warrant is out for ten years now rob and of course he still hasn

doctors themselves were also targeted by al bashir is regime. cannot you know my guess is this video taken on new year's eve shows for doctors being arrested by the military on the street in front of a hospital in hush 2. doctors said that says it's because doctors have historically been at the forefront of all. igniting strikes and protests against the regime. no matter how many times doctors were attacked they stayed in the hospitals this was very annoying for the on bashir regime that's why they tried everything they could against us and arrested us i took part in demonstrations and matches but i never dared say i was a doctor it was dangerous despite the violence dr who doesn't believe retribution is the way forward for sudan and this is the message i met hamdoon has for those attacking and abusing protesters. despite you torturing me i went out to protest for you too. sometimes i think about revenge. but i rather we have accountability because we protested against illegal practices so we can't turn around and do the same thing. in latest de
