#AlHassan defence requests the establishment of a panel of #ICC judges to review his sentence & determine whether it should be reduced.

“As of 17 January 2025, he has served 6 years, 9 months, and 19 days. He has thus served 2505 days of a total of 3653 days. This is 69% of his total sentence”.

My (first!) article: ‘Please, get me called to The Hague! The ICC as History’s Soapbox’, is now Open Access in the International Journal of Human Rights.
