Responding to the arrest warrant issued by the Special Criminal Court in Central African Republic against former President François Bozizé, Samira Daoud, Amnesty International’s Regional Director for West and Central Africa, said:
“The issuance of an arrest warrant against a high-level suspect such as François Bozizé is a very encouraging step in the quest for justice for victims of the numerous crimes committed in Central African Republic. However, the Special Criminal Court (SCC) can only fulfill its mandate of investigating and prosecuting those responsible for the numerous atrocities committed in the country if national authorities and all States fully cooperate.
