ICC-01/09-02/11-01 08-03-2011 2/25 EO PTPRE-TRIAL CHAMBER II (the "Chamber") of the International Criminal Court (the

"Court") renders this decision on the "Prosecutor's Application Pursuant to Article

58 as to Francis Kirimi Muthaura, Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta and Mohammed Hussein

Ali" (the "Application").!

1. On 31 March 2010, the Chamber issued its decision in which it granted, by

majority, the Prosecutor's request to commence an investigation in the situation in

the Republic of Kenya for crimes against humanity to the extent specified in the

operative part of the said decision (the "31 March 2010 Decision").^

2. On 15 December 2010, the Prosecutor submitted the Application requesting the

Chamber to:

a) Find that the re are r e a sonable g r o u n ds to believe that FRANCIS KIRIMI MUTHAURA,

UHURU MUIGAI KENYATTA a nd MOHAMMED HUSSEIN ALI c ommi t t ed crimes

3. The Prosecutor also requested that the Chamber issues the summonses to appear

for the three persons subject to a number of conditions outlined in paragraph 208 of

the Application.^

Decision").

5. On 23 February 2011, the Chamber received the witnesses' statements as requested

in the 16 February 2011 Decision.^

6. For the sake of ruling on the Prosecutor's Application, the Chamber shall examine

in a chronological order the following elements: (i) jurisdiction and admissibility; (ii)

whether there are reasonable grounds to believe that one or more crimes outlined in

the Prosecutor's Application have been committed; (iii) whether there are reasonable

grounds to believe that Francis Kirimi Muthaura, Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta and

Mohammed Hussein Ali (respectively, Muthaura, Kenyatta and Ali) are criminally

responsible for the crimes presented in the Prosecutor's Application; and (iv)

whether the requirements to issue summons to appear for Muthaura, Kenyatta and

Ali have been met.

I. Jurisdiction and admissibility

7. Article 19(1) of the Statute provides that: "The Court shall satisfy itself that it has

jurisdiction in any case brought before it. The Court may, on its own motion,

determine the admissibility of a case in accordance with article 17".

8. The Chamber considers that, regardless of the mandatory language of article 19(1)

of the Statute, which requires an examination of whether the Court has the

competence to adjudicate the case under consideration, any judicial body has the

power to determine its ov^ni jurisdiction, even in the absence of an explicit reference

to that effect. This is an essential feature in the exercise by any judicial body of its

5 Pre-Trial Chamber II, "Decision Requesting the Prosecutor to Submit the Statements of the Witnesses

on which he Relies for the Purposes of his Applications under Article 58 of the Rome Statute", ICC-

01/09-45-Conf-Exp.

ICC-01/09-02/11-01 08-03-2011 4/25 EO PTfunctions and is derived from the well-recognised principle of la compétence de la

compétence

9. The phrase "satisfy itself that it has jurisdiction" also entails that the Court must

'attain the degree of certainty' that the jurisdictional parameters set out in the Statute

have been satisfied.^ Thus, the Chamber's determination as to whether it has

jurisdiction over the case against Muthaura, Kenyatta and Ali is a prerequisite for

examining the Prosecutor's Application and in turn, the issuance or not of

summonses to appear against those persons pursuant to article 58 of the Statute.

10. In its 31 March 2010 Decision, the Chamber has examined the different facets of

jurisdiction in terms of place {ratione loci, le, in the Republic of Kenya), time {ratione

temporis, l e. crimes allegedly committed after 1 June 2005), and subject-matter {ratione

materiae, i.e. crimes against humanity). It has also defined the scope of the

Prosecutor's investigation with respect to the situation under consideration in view

of the above-mentioned three jurisdictional prerequisites, namely the territorial,

temporal and material parameters of the situation. It found that all the requirements

have been met which led it to authorise the Prosecutor to commence an investigation

into the situation in the Republic of Kenya in relation to "crimes against humanity

within the jurisdiction of the Court committed between 1 June 2005 and 26

November 2009".

11. In the context of the present decision, the Chamber has reviewed the

Application and the supporting material and is of the view that, since the Prosecutor

has adhered to the Court's territorial, temporal and material parameters defining the

situation as confirmed in the 31 March 2010 Decision, it finds no need to reiterate its

finding and provide a further detailed assessment of the question of jurisdiction of

the cases arising from that situation at this stage. In light of the foregoing the

the Prosecutor's Application.

12. Regarding admissibility, the second sentence of article 19(1) of the Statute

dictates that an admissibility determination of the case is only discretionary at this

stage of the proceedings, in particular when triggered by the proprio motu powers of

the Chamber. Accordingly, the Chamber shall not examine the admissibility of the

case at this phase of the proceedings.

II. Whether there are reasonable grounds to believe that one or more of the crimes

presented in the Prosecutor's Application have been committed

13. In his Application, the Prosecutor alleged that crimes against humanity have been

committed in different locations in the Republic of Kenya as follows:

Count 1

14. The Chamber notes that the Prosecutor's allegations relate to events that

occurred at different times in different regions of the Republic of Kenya. The material

presented at this stage does not indicate a sufficient link between the events in

Nakuru and Naivasha, on the one hand, and those in Kisumu and Kibera, on the

other hand, as to enable the Chamber to assess them in the course of one and the

No. ICC-01/09-02/11 7/25 8 March 2011

ICC-01/09-02/11-01 08-03-2011 7/25 EO PTsame analysis. Accordingly, the Chamber will at first proceed to the question

whether there are reasonable grounds to believe that the alleged crimes against

humanity within the jurisdiction of the Court have been committed in Nakuru and

Naivasha. The events that allegedly took place in Kisumu and Kibera will be

examined thereafter.

15. The Prosecutor submitted that the crimes allegedly committed in Nakuru and

Naivasha occurred in the context of a widespread and systematic attack against the

civilian population carried out by the Mungiki and pro-Party of National Unity

(PNU) youth against perceived Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) supporters,

pursuant to an organizational policy.!^

16. The Chamber recalls its legal analysis and findings on the law (as opposed to

the facts) concerning the contextual elements of the crimes against humanity as

conducted in its previous decisions, including the 31 March 2010 Decision, and sees

no reason either to reiterate or to depart from them.ü

17. On the basis of the Application, the information and the evidence presented

(collectively, the "material"), the Chamber finds that there are reasonable grounds to

believe that from on or about 24 January 2008 until 31 January 2008, the Mungiki

criminal organization carried out an attack against the non-Kikuyu population

perceived as supporting the ODM (mostly belonging to Luo, Luhya and Kalenjin

ethnic groups) in Nakuru and Naivasha.!^ According to the material presented, the

events in Nakuru resulted in at least 112 deaths,!^ 39 reported cases of rape,!^ at least

five cases of forcible circumcision!^ and the displacement of thousands of people.!^

ICC-01/09-02/11-01 08-03-2011 8/25 EO PTWith respect to the events taking place in Naivasha, the material made available to

the Chamber indicates that at least 40 deaths occurred as a result of the Mungiki

attack,!^ along with at least four cases of forcible circumcision of Luo men!^ and the

displacement of up to 10,000 residents.!^

18. Thus, the Chamber is satisfied, to the requisite threshold, that the events

described in the preceding paragraph constitute an "attack" within the meaning of

article 7(1) of the Statute. The Chamber concurs with the Prosecutor in that the

targeted population was civilian, distinguished by virtue of its perceived political

affiliation with the ODM.^^ It is also sufficiently sustained by the material presented

that such perception of political affiliation was largely rooted in ethnic divisions.^!

19. With respect to the statutory requirement that an attack against a civilian

population be widespread or systematic, the material presented first reveals the

large-scale nature of the attack as well as a high number of resultant victims.^^ The

Chamber thus finds that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the attack in

Nakuru and Naivasha was widespread. Moreover, the material submitted shows

that the attack by the Mungiki in Nakuru and Naivasha was organized^^ and

followed a consistent pattern, which is demonstrated by the fact that the attackers

utilized means to distinguish potential targets, such as employing local guides or

identifying residents by their native language.^^ The Chamber thus finds that there

are also reasonable grounds to believe that the attack in Nakuru and Naivasha was

systematic.

The Chamber is also satisfied that there are reasonable grounds to believe that

the attack was carried out pursuant to an organizational policy of the Mungiki. Due

to the particulars of the events at hand, the Chamber will first give reasons as to why

it considers the Mungiki to qualify as an "organization" under article 7(2) (a) of the

Statute, before proceeding to the evaluation as to the existence of a policy.

21. As previously clarified by the Chamber, the distinction between

"organizations" under article 7(2)(a) of the Statute and other groups that do not

amount to such qualification should be drawn on whether the group has the

capability to perform acts which infringe on basic human values.^^ In this respect, the

Chamber, in its 31 March 2010 Decision, listed a series of factors that may be taken

into account with a view to conducting such determination. Among those factors,

inter alia, the following are included: (i) whether the group is under a responsible

command, or has an established hierarchy; (ii) whether the group possesses, in fact,

the means to carry out a widespread or systematic attack against a civilian

population; (iii) whether the group has criminal activities against the civilian

population as a primary purpose; and (iv) whether the group articulates, explicitly or

implicitly, an intention to attack a civilian population.^^

22. In this regard, the Chamber finds that there are reasonable grounds to believe

that the Mungiki operate as a large and complex hierarchical structure featuring

various levels of command and a clear division of duties in the command structure.^^

Furthermore, the material presented illustrates that obedience to the internal rules of

the Mungiki is achieved by way of strict disciplinary measures.^^ The material also

shows the existence of a trained militant wing of the Mungiki, which is employed to

carry out violent operations, including executions.^^ The extent of the power of the

Mungiki is sustained by the available material which demonstrates the Mungiki's

control over core societal activities in many of the poor residential areas, particularly

In this regard, according to the material presented, the Mungiki, inter alia:

(i) control and provide social services such as electricity, water and sanitation;^^ (ii)

administer criminal justice through local chairmen who act as judges in their

communities;^! and (iii) control the transport sector and other business activities,

where they provide informal employment for members.^^ The material shows that to

support such activities, the Mungiki collect informal taxes in the areas under their

control.^^ In light of the foregoing, the Chamber is of the opinion that the material

submitted provides reasonable grounds to believe that the Mungiki qualify as an

organization within the meaning and for the purposes of article 7(2) (a) of the Statute.

23. Turning now to the policy requirement, the Chamber is guided in its conclusion

by the material relating to the occurrence, prior to the attack, of planning meetings,

locally in Nakuru and Naivasha as well as in Nairobi.^^ The material also provides

reasonable grounds to believe that: (i) the majority of the attackers had been ferried

from elsewhere prior to the attack;^^ (ii) in the period immediately preceding the

events, large quantities of crude weapons were bought and distributed to attackers;^^

and (iii) leaflets announcing the attack were circulated among the targeted

population.^^ There are thus reasonable grounds to believe that the attack in Nakuru

and Naivasha was carried out pursuant to a policy established to that effect by the

Mungiki organization.

Kenyan Police Forces during the attack in Nakuru and Naivasha^^ and the references

not entertain this issue. This is without prejudice to further submissions in this

regard to be considered by the Chamber in the future.

25. With respect to the alleged underlying acts constituting crimes against

humanity, the Chamber is satisfied, on the basis of the examination of the facts

referred to in paragraph 17 above, that there are reasonable grounds to believe that

murder and forcible transfer of population as acts constituting crimes against

humanity were committed as part of the attack against the civilian population in

Nakuru and Naivasha (Counts 1 and 2).

26. The Chamber also finds reasonable grounds to believe that rape as an act

constituting a crime against humanity was committed as part of the attack in Nakuru

(Count 3). Conversely, the Chamber notes that the Prosecutor failed to provide

evidence substantiating his allegation that rape was committed as part of the attack

in Naivasha. Consequently, and without prejudice to new evidence being submitted

at a later stage of the proceedings, the Chamber finds that there are no reasonable

grounds to believe that rape as an act constituting crimes against humanity was

committed in Naivasha.

27. The Chamber notes that the Prosecutor alleged that, in addition to rape, other

forms of sexual violence were committed during the attack.^^ In this regard, it

appears from his Application that, in the Prosecutor's view, the acts of forcible

circumcision of Luo men constitute such "other forms of sexual violence" within the

meaning of article 7(l)(g) of the Statute.^^ In the Chamber's view, however, the acts of

forcible circumcision cannot be considered acts of a "sexual nature" as required by

39 Prosecutor's Application, Annex 3, p. 122; Annex 8, p. 19; Annex 23, pp. 241, 243-244, 6bl-6b8. the El ements of Crimes^^ b ut a re to be m o re p r o p e r ly qualified as " o t h er i n h u m a ne a c t s" wi t h in the me a n i ng of article 7(l)(k) of the St a tut e.

The C h amb er r e a ches this conclusion in light of t he s e r ious injury to b o dy t h at the forcible circumcision causes and in vi ew of its character, similar to other u n d e r l y i ng acts constituting crimes against humanity.^^ For this r e a son, a nd on the basis of the determination of facts above in p a r a g r a ph 17, the C h amb er conc ludes that t h e re a re reasonable grounds to believe that other i n h u mane acts as an act cons t i tut ing a crime against h u m a n i ty

w e re commi t t ed as p a rt of the attack aga inst the civilian p o p u l a t i on in N a k u ru a nd

Na i v a s ha (Count 4).

28. Finally, wi th r e spe ct to the Pros e cutor 's allegation that pe r s e cut ion as an act

cons t i tut ing a crime aga inst h u m a n i ty w as also commi t t ed d u r i ng the attack

described above, t he C h amb er considers that the available ma t e r i al p r o v i d es

r e a sonable g r o u n ds to believe t h at the acts of m u r d e r, forcible transfer of p o p u l a t i o n, r a pe a nd other i n h u m a ne acts we re commi t t ed aga inst a collectivity identified on

political g r o u n ds by r e a s on of its pe r c e ived affiliation w i th the ODM.^^ Therefore, the C h amb er finds that t h e re a re r e a sonable g r o u n ds to believe that pe r s e cut ion as an act cons t i tut ing a crime aga inst h u m a n i ty w as commi t t ed as p a rt of the attack aga inst the civilian p o p u l a t i on in N a k u ru a nd Na i v a s ha (Count 5).

29. Ha v i ng ana lyz ed the Pros e cutor 's allegations a nd the ma t e r i al p r e s e n t ed in

r e l a t ion to the events in N a k u ru a nd Na iva sha, the C h amb er n ow t u r ns to the events in Ki s umu a nd Kibera t h at the Pros e cutor likewise alleged to cons t i tute crimes

aga inst h u m a n i t y.

30. The C h amb er finds that the ma t e r i al p r e s e n t ed by the Pros e cutor p r o v i d es

r e a sonable g r o u n ds to believe that in late De c ember 2007 a nd in J a n u a ry 2008,

Kenyan police u s ed excessive force, in pa r t i cul ar live ammu n i t i o n, aga inst the

civilian residents of Kisumu, which resulted in over 60 deaths.^^ In addition, there are

reasonable grounds to believe that from late December 2007 until early January 2008

and again in mid-January 2008, Kenyan police raided the slums of Kibera^^ and that

this resulted in deaths,^^ injuries^^ and rapes.^! The material also provides reasonable

grounds to believe that, during that period, the Mungiki perpetrated acts of violence

against the civilian population of Kibera.

31. With respect to these events in Kisumu and Kibera, the Chamber notes that the

Prosecutor, although mentioning in his Application that the violence was executed

by the Kenyan Police Forces, failed to provide an accurate factual and legal

submission which would require the Chamber to examine whether the acts of

violence were part of an attack pursuant to or in furtherance of a State policy.

32. Apart from the foregoing, it is even more compelling that the material presented

by the Prosecutor does not provide reasonable grounds to believe that the events

which took place in Kisumu and/or in Kibera can be attributed to Muthaura,

Kenyatta and/or Ali under any mode of liability embodied in article 25(3) of the

Statute.

33. For these reasons, the Chamber deems it unnecessary to proceed with any

further analysis and legal qualification of the events which occurred in Kisumu and

Kibera. This is without prejudice to further submissions in this regard to be

considered by the Chamber in the future.

47 Prosecutor's Application, Annex 3, pp. 194-195,199; Annex 7, p. 31; Annex 19.

Whether there are reasonable grounds to believe that Francis Kirimi Muthaura,

Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta and Mohammed Hussein Ali are criminally responsible

for the crimes alleged in the Prosecutor's Application

34. The Prosecutor alleged that Muthaura, Kenyatta and Ali are criminally

responsible for the crimes against humanity alleged under the different counts

presented to the Chamber either as indirect co-perpetrators pursuant to article

25(3)(a) of the Statute or, in the alternative, as having contributed to a crime

committed by a group of persons under article 25(3)(d) of the Statute.^^

35. The Chamber recalls its finding in the confirmation of charges decision

concerning the Prosecutor v. Jean-Pierre Bemba, where it acknowledged that the

concept of co-perpetration (joint commission) whether direct or indirect embodied in

article 25(3)(a) of the Statute and reflected in the words "[committing] jointly with

another or through another person" must go together with the notion of "control

over the crime" .^^

36. The Chamber also recalls that the mode of liability of indirect co-perpetration

consists of the following elements: (i) the suspect must be part of a common plan or

an agreement with one or more persons; (ii) the suspect and the other coperpetrator(s) must carry out essential contributions in a coordinated manner which

result in the fulfilment of the material elements of the crime; (iii) the suspect must

have control over the organisation; (iv) the organisation must consist of an organised

and hierarchal apparatus of power; (iv) the execution of the crimes must be secured

by almost automatic compliance with the orders issued by the suspect; (v) the

suspect must satisfy the subjective elements of the crimes; (vi) the suspect and the

other co-perpetrator(s) must be mutually aware and accept that implementing the

common plan will result in the fulfilment of the material elements of the crimes; and

joint control over the commission of the crime through another person(s).^^

37. On the basis of the material provided by the Prosecutor, the Chamber finds that

there are reasonable grounds to believe that a series of meetings were held between,

at least, mid-November 2007 and January 2008 between, inter alia, Muthaura,

Kenyatta and members of the Mungiki, wherein the retaliatory attack in the Rift

Valley was planned.

According to the material presented, it was envisaged at the

meetings that the Mungiki would carry out the attack with the purpose of keeping

the PNU in power, in exchange for an end to government repression and protection

of the Mungiki's interests.^^ The Chamber is therefore of the view that there are

reasonable grounds to believe that a common plan of committing the alleged crimes

was agreed upon among Muthaura, Kenyatta, Mungiki representatives and others.

38. Conversely, the Chamber does not find at this stage that the material presented

by the Prosecutor provide reasonable grounds to believe that Ali participated in the

common plan, i.e. that he agreed with the other members of the plan, sharing the

same intent, to commit the crimes against humanity referred to in the previous

section. For this reason, the Chamber will not examine the remaining elements of

indirect co-perpetration with respect to All's alleged individual criminal

responsibility, but will proceed in this section only with regard to Kenyatta and

Muthaura. Thereafter, the Chamber will examine whether there are reasonable

grounds to believe that Ali in any other way contributed to the commission of the

crimes by a group of persons acting with a common purpose, as alternatively alleged

by the Prosecutor under article 25(3)(d) of the Statute.

In his Appl i c a t ion, the Pros e cutor alleged that b o th Kenya t ta a nd M u t h a u ra

pe r formed essential t a sks in the imp l eme n t a t i on of the c ommon plan. The C h amb er

finds t h at t h e re a re r e a sonable g r o u n ds to believe t h at Kenya t ta a nd Mu t h a u r a, as p a rt of the common pl an, h ad agr e ed to fulfill the ma t e r i al e l ements of the alleged crimes by u s i ng their a u t h o r i ty respectively over the Mungiki a nd over the Ke n y an Police Forces.

40. Rega rding Ke n y a t t a 's role in the imp l eme n t a t i on of the c ommon pl an, the

Pros e cutor alleged that his t a sks ma inly consisted in s e cur ing the coope r a t ion of the

Mu n g i ki criminal organi z a t ion for the p e r p e t r a t i on of the crimes a g r e ed as p a rt of the c ommon plan.^° The C h amb er is of the v i ew that t h e re a re r e a sonable g r o u n ds to believe that i n d e ed Kenya t t a: (i) organi z ed a nd facilitated, on several occasions,

me e t ings b e twe en powe r ful p r o - PNU figures a nd r epr e s ent a t ives of the Mungiki,

t h us ma k i ng possible t he v e ry conception of the c ommon p l an referred to above;^! (ii)

s u p e r v i s ed the p r e p a r a t i on a nd coordina t ion of the Mungiki in a d v a n ce of the

attack;^^ (iii) cont r ibut ed m o n ey t o w a r ds the r e t a l i a tory attack p e r p e t r a t ed by the Mu n g i ki in the Rift Valley.^^ The C h amb er is t h us of the vi ew t h at the re are

r e a sonable g r o u n ds to believe that the cont r ibut ion given by Kenya t ta to the

imp l eme n t a t i on of the c ommon p l an w as essential.

4 1. In this r ega rd, the C h amb er recalls its p r e v i o us findings as to the organi z ed a nd

hierarchical s t ruc ture of the Mungiki.^^ The re are also r e a sonable g r o u n ds to believe

that Kenya t ta h ad control over the Mungiki organi z a t ion a nd that the commi s s ion of

the crimes w as s e cur ed by its m e m b e r s' a lmost automa t ic compl i ance wi th

Ke n y a t t a 's o r d e r s. This eme rge s, to the requisite thr e shold, from the ma t e r i al

s u bmi t t ed by the Pros e cutor that indi c a te Ke n y a t t a 's powe r ful pos i t ion wi t h in the Mungiki organization that have received from him protection and patronage on

several occasions.^^ For instance, the material available shows that in exchange of this

protection and patronage, Kenyatta's candidacy for the Office of President in the

2002 general election was publicly endorsed by the Mungiki.^^ There are thus

reasonable grounds to believe that Kenyatta exercised over the Mungiki a control

that amounted to the "control over the organization" as required for the purposes of

establishing individual criminal liability under article 25(3)(a) of the Statute.

42. With respect to Muthaura, the material presented indicates that he personally led,

therefore exercising a coordinating role within the organization, a number of

meetings between prominent PNU members and Mungiki members wherein the

common plan and its implementation were agreed upon.^^ The material submitted

also shows that Muthaura, in at least one occasion, directly paid a significant sum of

money to Mungiki representatives at the conclusion of one of the planning meetings

held in November 2007.^^ Furthermore, the Chamber recalls that, at the relevant time,

Muthaura held the position of Head of the Public Service and Secretary to the

Cabinet, as well as of Chairman of the National Security and Advisory Committee.

There are reasonable grounds to believe that Muthaura, by virtue of his position,

exercised direct authority over the Kenyan Police Forces,^^ which secured automatic

compliance with his orders. Thus the Chamber finds reasonable grounds to believe

that Muthaura used his authority to ensure that the Kenyan Police Forces did not

interfere with the commission of the crimes directly perpetrated by the Mungiki.

43. In light of the foregoing, the Chamber is satisfied that are reasonable grounds to

believe that Muthaura had the power to frustrate the commission of the crimes in the

way they were committed by not performing his tasks and that his contribution was

thus essential.

In view of the above, the Chamber finds that the submitted material provides

reasonable grounds to believe that: (i) a common plan that included the commission

of the alleged crimes had been agreed among Kenyatta, Muthaura and others; (ii)

Kenyatta and Muthaura, as part of the implementation of such common plan,

performed coordinated essential tasks, respectively through the Mungiki and the

Kenyan Police Forces; (iii) Kenyatta and Muthaura exercised joint control over the

commission of these crimes and were aware of the circumstances enabling them to

jointly exercise such control; (iv) Kenyatta and Muthaura were mutually aware and

accepted that the implementation of the common plan, by way of performing their

coordinated essential tasks, would have resulted in the fulfillment of the material

elements of the alleged crimes; and (v) Kenyatta and Muthaura intended the crimes

to be committed and were aware of the widespread and systematic nature of the

attack committed against the civilian population, in the context of which the crimes

were perpetrated.!

45. For the foregoing reasons, the Chamber finds that there are reasonable grounds to

believe that Kenyatta and Muthaura are criminally responsible as indirect coperpetrators under article 25 (3) (a) of the Statute for the crimes alleged by the

Prosecutor in his Application under article 58 of the Statute.

46. As found above, the Chamber is of the view that the material submitted by the

Prosecutor is not sufficient to establish reasonable grounds to believe that Ali can be

held responsible as indirect co-perpetrator under article 25(3)(a) of the Statute. The

Prosecutor alleged, in the alternative, that Ali is criminally responsible as having

contributed to a crime committed by a group of persons within the meaning of article

25(3)(d) of the Statute.

47. This mode of liability has the following specific requirements: (i) a crime within

the jurisdiction of the Court is attempted or committed; (ii) the commission or

attempted commission of such a crime was carried out by a group of persons acting

w i th a c ommon p u r p o s e; (iii) the i n d i v i d u al cont r ibut ed to the crime in a ny w ay

other t h an those set o ut in article 25(3)(a) to (c) of the St a tute (objective e l ement s ); (iv) the cont r ibut ion is int ent iona l; a nd (v) the cont r ibut ion h as b e en m a de either (a) wi th the aim of fur the r ing the criminal activity or criminal p u r p o se of the g r o u p; or (b) in the l^nowledge of the int ent ion of the g r o up to commit the crime (subjective

elements).

48. The C h amb er recalls its findings in the p r e c e d i ng sections t h at the re a re

r e a sonable g r o u n ds to believe t h at crimes wi t h in the jur i sdi c t ion of the C o u rt we re committed.^^ The C h amb er h as also found that the re are r e a sonable g r o u n ds to

believe that the said crimes h a ve be en commi t t ed, p u r s u a nt to a c ommon pl an, by a

g r o up of p e r s o ns acting in a concerted manner.

49. The C h amb er is of t he v i ew t h at t h e re a re r e a sonable g r o u n ds to believe t h at Ali, before the commi s s ion of the crimes, w as contacted by M u t h a u ra w ho informed h im in a d v a n ce of the int ent ion of the memb e rs of the c ommon p l an to commit the

g r o u n ds to believe t h at Ali, exercising his author i ty as the Commi s s ioner of the

Kenyan Police Forces, di r e c t ed the Police n ot to obs t ruct the Mungiki from

commi s s ion of the crimes w as m a de wi th the awa r ene ss of the int ent ion of the g r o up 72 Pre-Trial Chamber I, "Decision on the Prosecutor's Application for a Warrant of Arrest Against

Therefore, the Chamber does not find necessary at this

stage to assess whether the other form of subjective element set out in the alternative

in sub-paragraph (i) of article 25(3)(d) of the Statute emerges, to the requisite

threshold, from the material presented.

51. In view of the foregoing, the Chamber is satisfied that there are reasonable

grounds to believe that Ali is criminally responsible under article 25(3)(d) of the

Statute for having contributed to the commission of the crimes against humanity as

alleged by the Prosecutor under the different counts presented to the Chamber.

52. The Chamber wishes to clarify that all the findings in the present section are

without prejudice to further evidence at a later stage of the proceedings which would

establish individual criminal responsibility for the crimes under a different mode of

liability.

IV. Whether the requirements for the issuance of summons to appear for Francis

Kirimi Muthaura, Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta and Mohammed Hussein Ali have been

met

53. The Chamber notes that according to article 58(7) of the Statute, summonses to

appear for Muthaura, Kenyatta and Ali shall be issued, if it is satisfied that there are

reasonable grounds to believe that these persons have committed the crimes alleged

in the Prosecutor's Application and that summonses are sufficient to ensure their

appearance before the Court.

54. The Chamber has already determined that there are reasonable grounds to

believe that criminal responsibility under article 25(3)(a) and (d) of the Statute can be

attributed to the persons named in the Prosecutor's Application for the occurrence of

the crimes against humanity discussed in section II above. Yet, for summonses to be

issued, article 58(7) of the Statute still requires the Chamber to be satisfied that such

an option is sufficient to ensure the persons' appearance before the Court.

ICC-01/09-02/11-01 08-03-2011 21/25 EO PT55.

The Chamber concurs with the Prosecutor that the issuance of a warrant of arrest

is not necessary as neither Muthaura nor Kenyatta nor Ali are perceived to be a flight

risk and that nothing currently indicates that they would evade personal service of

the summons or refrain from cooperating if summoned to appear.^^ Accordingly, the

Chamber is satisfied that the issuance of summonses to appear for Muthaura,

Kenyatta and Ali is sufficient to ensure their appearance before the Court. This is

without prejudice to the Chamber's competence to revisit its finding either proprio

motu or in response to a request submitted by the Prosecutor. Should Muthaura,

Kenyatta and Ali fail to appear on the date specified in the summonses or to comply

with the conditions to be imposed, the Chamber reserves the right to replace the

summonses to appear with warrants of arrest under article 58 of the Statute and rule

119(4) of the Rules of Procedure and Evidence.

V. Conclusion

56. In view of the foregoing, the Chamber is satisfied that there are reasonable

grounds to believe that Muthaura and Kenyatta are criminally responsible as indirect

co-perpetrators under article 25(3)(a) of the Statute and that Ali is criminally

responsible as having contributed to crimes committed by a group of persons within

the meaning of article 25(3)(d) of the Statute for the following acts constituting crimes

against humanity committed from on or about 24 January 2008 until 31 January 2008:

(i) murder within the meaning of article 7(1) (a) of the Statute (Count 1, only

with respect to the murders committed in Nakuru and Naivasha);

(ii) forcible transfer of population within the meaning of article 7(l)(d) of the

Statute (Count 2, with respect to the forcible transfer committed in Nakuru

and Naivasha);

(iii) rape within the meaning of article 7(1 )(g) of the Statute (Count 3, only with

respect to the rapes committed in Nakuru);

Naivasha);

(v) persecution within the meaning of article 7(l)(h) of the Statute (Count 5,

only with respect to the acts committed in Nakuru and Naivasha).

57. The Chamber therefore decides to issue summonses to appear, pursuant to article

58(7) of the Statute, for the three persons, being satisfied that this measure is

sufficient to ensure their appearance before the Court.
