The International Criminal Court has denied claims it is working with Russian mercenary group, Wagner to hunt for Lord’s Resistance Army commander, Joseph Kony.
Osvaldo Zavala Giler, ICC registrar said that they are not cooperating with any of those Wagner groups in relation to this. He added that they are however working very hard with state parties and Ugandan government to try to secure the arrest and prosecution of Joseph Kony to ICC.
He was speaking to journalists as part of his visit to Uganda.
Last month, the media reported that Kony had survived by a whisker, an attack on one of his camps in the Central African Republic by Wagner group.
However, responding to questions from journalists in this line, the ICC registrar, Osvaldo Zavala Giler said they only work with state parties.
Wagner is a Russian state-funded private military company.
