Iran Press/Africa: Tagelsir al-Heber said on Sunday that they started an investigation about the crimes that have been committed in Darfur from 2003.
Speaking upon his arrival in Khartoum from a visit to the United Arab Emirates, al-Heber said, “Fifty-one members of the former regime, including Omar al-Bashir and former Cabinet minister and governor Ahmed Haroun, will be investigated. They will face justice.”
The investigation will be the first to be launched since al-Bashir was ousted by the Sudanese army in April following massive protests against his 30-year rule.
Al-Bashir is behind bars for corruption and awaiting trial on other charges.
He is also wanted by the International Criminal Court in The Hague for his role in the bloody Darfur conflict.
