The Sudanese government will hand over ousted President Omer al-Bashir and former leading members of his government to the International Criminal Court (ICC), an official said Saturday, APA reports quoting Anadolu Agency.

“The government has decided to hand over Bashir and other criminals to the ICC after the adoption of the ICC procedures,” Minister of Federal Affairs Buthaina Dinar said at a news conference.

He said the handover would follow the end of Bashir’s trial on corruption and other crimes in local courts.

Bashir and three officials were indicted by The Hague-based court on charges, including war crimes, genocide and crimes against humanity.
