DRC warlord says ICC claims are 'lies' KINSHASA, Democratic Republic of Congo, May 30 (UPI) -- A rebel Congolese general said war crime charges filed against him at the International Criminal Court are based on false claims. The International Criminal Court has sought the arrest of rebel Congolese Gen. Bosco Ntaganda since 2006. Human Rights Watch accuses him of conscripting child soldiers into his April rebellion against forces from the Democratic Republic of Congo. Ntaganda told the BBC that ICC charges against him were fabricated as the international courts are biased against Africans. "It is lies, it is lies, they should stop lying to Africans," he said. Ntaganda's forces were integrated into the Congolese military in 2009 as part of a peace deal. He said the government in Kinshasa wasn't living up to its end of the bargain. The United Nations estimates around 30,000 Congolese people have fled the country because of recent fighting attributed to Ntaganda's forces. ICC Chief Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo has sought to add war crimes and crimes against humanity charges to the arrest warrant for Ntaganda.
