ICC

Agenda Item: Prosecutor v. Camara

On September 28, 2009, a large crowd assembled in a stadium in Conakry, the capital of Guinea, to peacefully protest against the military junta's leadership under Moussa Dadis Camara and his intention to run for president. Law enforcement officials stormed the stadium and fired upon the demonstrators, resulting in the deaths and injuries of hundreds, along with numerous instances of sexual assault on women. The incident was defined as a crime against humanity by the international community and was recorded as one of the bloodiest days in Guinea's modern history. Camara had to leave power after international pressure and an assassination attempt, but those responsible for the incident could not be brought to justice for a long time. This massacre became a symbol of the problems of human rights violations and impunity in Guinea. Can you, the judges, conclude this case that has been going on for many years?
