This is a fascinating glimpse into a world us defence counsel have inhabited for the past decades. Kudos to @justiceinfo.bsky.social and Damien Scalia for bringing this to the wider community.

Thank you to Kate McInnes for calling attention to the plight of the #ICTR acquitted and released persons stranded in #Niger. My client, Francois-Xavier #Nzuwonemeye was arrested in 2000, acquitted in 2014, and has yet to be reunited with his family. This is not justice.

Leaving acquitted or released people out of planning for the international criminal justice system has had serious consequences for my client Francois-Xavier #Nzuwonemeye and others, putting them at the mercy of political actors.

Thank you Lucy for your insightful substack posts on the Kony proceedings. It was the best expose of this vast waste of time and money.

I'll be offering the perspective of those seeking delisting from sanctions this afternoon at this webinar reflecting on 15 years of the UN Office of the Ombudsperson. Sanctions suck.
