Iran Press/Africa: The agreement to extradite Omar al-Bashir to the International Criminal Court came after talks between Sudanese Foreign Minister Maryam al-Sadiq al-Mahdi and International Criminal Court Prosecutor Karim Khan in Khartoum.
Karim Khan, the prosecutor of the Hague Criminal Court, also stressed the importance of taking practical steps to ensure justice for the victims of the war in Darfur and to punish those responsible for international crimes committed against the victims.
About a week ago, Sudan announced its accession to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, which the US State Department also welcomed.
The International Criminal Court has charged Omar al-Bashir with committing war crimes during the conflict in Darfur.
