Arrest Warrant Issued by: INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT IN THE HAGUE / ICC/INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT

DETAILS

STATE MINISTER FOR HUMANITARIAN AFFAIRS IN DARFUR, PEACEKEEPER LIAISON & SUSPECTED WAR CRIMINAL

WANTED FOR OVER 40 COUNTS OF CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY AND WAR CRIMES, FOR RECRUITING, FUNDING AND DIRECTING JANJAWEED MILITIA RESPONSIBLE FOR RAPING, PERSECUTING, ATTACKING AND KILLING CIVILIANS, AND FOR INCITING THEM TO CARRY OUT THOSE ATTACKS

AKA: Ahmed Haroun, Mohamed Ahmed Haroun and Ahmed Haroon

From about April 2003 to September 2005, Ahmad Harun was State Minister for the Interior in Sudan – with special responsibility for the ‘Darfur Security desk’.

He was responsible for co-ordinating and directing the activities of the Janjaweed militia, Sudanese armed forces, intelligence and security services – used in a vicious ‘counter insurgency’ campaign against Fur, Masalit and Zaghawa and other non-Arab civilians whom he claimed were supporting the rebels. Substantial evidence was put before the Court to show that Harun had personally participated in the recruitment of Janjaweed militia, as well as mobilizing, funding and arming them. He was repeatedly identified as liaising with Janjaweed commanders, and the Court found there was reasonable grounds to believe that Harun knew full well that his new recruits, who were sometimes criminals released from prison, were committing crimes against humanity and war crimes against civilians in Darfur. Not only that, but evidence gathered by the ICC shows that Harun personally incited the militia to attack the Fur, Zaghawa and Masalit people. In one public speech to the massed ranks of Janjaweed, shortly before they looted the town of Mukjar, he stated that “since the children of the Fur had become rebels, all the Fur and what they had, had become booty.”

Present whereabouts:

Ahmad Harun continues to oversee humanitarian operations in Darfur in his capacity as State Minister for Humanitarian Affairs. In September 2007 Khartoum has appointed him to co-chair a commission whose mandate includes investigating human rights violations in Darfur.

The Government of Sudan has refused to surrender Harun to the ICC, insisting that he had no links to the Janjaweed. Khartoum also argues that, since it is not an ICC signatory, proceedings against Harun are a matter for the Sudanese judicial system.

This post was a copy of a letter written by the widow of the ex KGB operative who was allegedly murdered on November 1, 2006. by another KGB operative, Andrei Lugovoy, using radioactive polonium-210.

Marina Litvinenko stated in part: “I do this against the wishes of the Scotland Yard and David Miliband, the Foreign Secretary, who both told me that making the evidence public would prejudice a criminal trial of the chief suspect, Andrei Lugovoy, whom the UK is trying to extradite from Russia. But after waiting for 15 months I have come to the conclusion that Mr Lugovoy, a former KGB agent, will never be extradited. So I respectfully reject their argument. I cannot wait for another ten years for a slim chance that their approach would bear fruit.”

While preparing a follow up post that would include a wanted poster, the unexpected happened. To ensure the accuracy of our information, we did a search on Interpol, entering “Andrei Lugovoy” as the search term. We got an interesting return on our search queries!

No documents matching your query were found.

Continuing, others data banks were searched:

FBI: Your search – Andrei Lugovoy – did not match any documents.
No pages were found containing “Andrei Lugovoy”.

Metropolitan Police (Scotland Yard): web search: no matches were found for ‘Andrei Lugovoy’

Home Office: Your search – Andrei Lugovoy – did not match any documents.
No pages were found containing “Andrei Lugovoy”.

The Crown Prosecution Service: Search results for “Andrei Lugovoi”
Sorry, no results found

We did actually get a hit using the US State department web site. There is a mention in the 2007 country report on Britain stating:
On May 28, British authorities requested the extradition from Russia of Andrei Lugovoy in connection with the 2006 death by radioactive poisoning of former Russian intelligence officer Alekasandr Litvenenko. Litvenenko had been highly critical of the Russian political leadership, and many observers believed the killing was politically motivated. Russian authorities rejected the extradition request.

Marina Litvinenko indeed may be a long time waiting for “justice”!

EDIT: At the request of a contributor, we ran the same checks using the Russian spelling, “Andrei Lugovoi” and actually added more checks. Same results.

Your search – Andrei Lugovoi – did not match any documents.
