The International Criminal Court (ICC) said on November 6 it had assigned three judges to consider a prosecution request for an inquiry into Kenya's post-poll violence, which claimed about 1,500 lives in December 2007. The move came a day after ICC prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo said he would ask the court's judges to order a probe into Kenya's worst post-independence unrest. Some 1,500 people were killed and another 300,000 displaced in a matter of weeks following presidential polls in December 27, 2007, in which then opposition chief Odinga accused President Mwai Kibaki of having stolen the vote.
