Judges at the International Criminal Court (ICC) on Friday rejected a request to open an investigation into allegations of war crimes and crimes against humanity in Afghanistan.
The prosecutor had requested authorization to investigate war crimes that may have been occurring in the country since 2003. The court noted that the political situation since 2006, the time of the preliminary examination, has changed rapidly in Afghanistan.
