Sudanese Lecturer Demands Fatwa Allowing ICC Prosecutor's Killing
Suawiya Khader Al-Amin, an attorney and lecture in shari'a and law, has demanded of Sudan's Islamic Fiqh Council that it issue a fatwa permitting the killing of International Criminal Court prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo, following his decision to issue an arrest warrant against Sudanese President Omar Al-Bashir.
He demanded the fatwa because, he said, Ocampo's decision would lead to civil war among the Muslims in Sudan.
