KENYA-ICC warns Kenya against leaking classified information

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has warned the Kenyan government against leaking classified information to the media in the case against President Uhuru Kenyatta.

The judges in the case say the Kenyan government has not taken the necessary steps to ensure filings remain confidential.In a report released on Tuesday, the ICC’s Trial Chamber V says the breach concerns the leaking of details of a confidential request from the ICC judges to help freeze or seize President Kenyatta’s assets.
As a result, the chamber found it necessary to re-classify certain documents. The ICC prosecution insists that the Kenyan Government has not complied with a request to deliver additional information, while Kenyatta’s lawyer insist that the court is asking forambiguous and unspecific information.
