That was after the Bill to establish an independent tribunal to try the perpetrators of the post-election violence had been rejected by this House. These measures included:- (i) Setting up of a special tribunal, in other words, coming back to the House. (ii) Referring the cases to the ICC. (iii)Withdrawing from the Rome Statute and repealing the International Crimes Act. (iv) Using the High Court to try the perpetrators of the post-election violence. (v) Establishing a special High Court division to deal with the matter. The Cabinet resolved to do the following:- (i) stand up against impunity in pursuit of justice; (ii) vigorously pursue national healing and reconciliation; (iii) re-affirm its commitment to co-operate with, and fulfill its obligation to, the ICC under the Rome Statute; and. (iv) undertake Judicial and Police reforms."
