“The most hideous crimes committed after the election were committed, to the prosecutor’s point of view, by Mr Gbagbo’s troops,” Luis Moreno-Ocampo told a news conference, on 1 June 2012, in Abidjan.
Moreno-Ocampo arrived in Abidjan on Friday and met President Alassane Ouattara the same day. On Saturday, he met representatives of Gbagbo’s Ivorian Popular Front party. Captured in April 2011, Gbagbo has been in custody in The Hague since November of that year on allegations of crimes against humanity.
