SV: {UAH} LRA commander Dominic Ongwen 'in Ugandan custody'

UAH-ers,

Was he really CAPTURED or Yonder is no fun anymore for the Vampyrs?

Okej, occassionally I see ghost in most of the acts of the LRA but, the way many of the LRA senior commanders have been quiting yonder to find solace in Uganda without a scrath ( and no remorse neither) makes me even this time around, go cynical first.

A senior Commander is not often captured withou resistance from his guards

and, without a scratch!

A senior militia commander wanted for war crimes has been handed over to Ugandan troops in the Central African Republic (CAR), the US says.

Dominic Ongwen, considered by some to be a deputy to Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) chief Joseph Kony, was taken into US custody last week.

Rebels in the CAR said he was captured but US officials say he defected.

Uganda has said he will face trial at the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague.

The LRA has abducted thousands of children for fighting and sex slavery.

Both Mr Ongwen and Joseph Kony are wanted by the ICC for war crimes and crimes against humanity.

The LRA, led by Joseph Kony, has killed more than 100,000 people, and kidnapped more than 60,000 children

The US embassy in Kampala tweeted that Mr Ongwen had been handed over to the Ugandan contingent of the Africa Union force set up to tackle the LRA.

Uganda Foreign Affairs Minister Okello Oryem said the LRA commander would be taken to Uganda before being sent to The Hague.

Uganda had initially wanted to put him on trial but on Tuesday announced it had agreed to send him to the ICC.

The BBC's Catherine Byaruhanga in Kampala says Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni appears to have conceded that the LRA has committed atrocities in neighbouring countries as well and so he should face international justice.

President Museveni has recently accused the ICC of bias against African leaders.
