Darfur war crimes trial begins at the ICC
The ICC begins the trial of a suspected former militia chief who is facing accusations of war crimes and crimes against humanity in Darfur.
Darfur War Crimes trial begins at the ICC nearly 20 years after the war started; Pregnant women are left lying across the floor of a Johannesburg hospital, struggling to accommodate high numbers of patients. And we catch up with a former Liberian taxi driver whose life was changed after he returned fifty thousand dollars that he'd found.
