THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) -- The prosecutor of the International Criminal Court called Monday for renewed efforts to arrest a notorious Ugandan rebel leader following reports of a new wave of attacks.
Joseph Kony, seen in a 2006 photo, is being blamed for attacks by militants in Congo last month.
Luis Moreno-Ocampo says Lords Resistance Army leader Joseph Kony must be arrested following attacks and abductions by his forces in villages in Congo last month.
The world's first permanent war crimes court issued arrest warrants for Kony and other leaders of his group in 2005 for crimes including murder, rape, enslavement and using child soldiers.
Moreno-Ocampo said in a statement Monday that the rebels killed civilians including local chiefs and abducted children from schools in attacks on September 17 near northern Congo's border with Sudan.
