The International Criminal Court has resumed the trial of Kenyan Deputy President, William Ruto after allowing him return home to deal with last week’s deadly militant attack on a Nairobi mall.

It would be recalled that both Ruto and his co-defendant, radio executive Joshua Sang, had pleaded not guilty in the trial which began last month, with prosecutors alleging Ruto orchestra ethnic violence after Kenya’s disputed 2007 presidential election.

Ruto is said to be back in court at The Hague for his trial on charges of crimes against humanity.

However, apart from Ruto and Sang, the ICC will also try Kenyan President Uhuru by November.
