The International Criminal Court says, it wants to move quickly against the perpetrators of Kenya's 2007 post-election violence. Chief Prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo told newsmen in Nairobi at the end of his three-day visit to Kenya that two or three cases could come to trial by July next year. Mr Ocampo said speed was important so that Kenya could hold its next election in 2012 without the threat of violence. On Thursday, Mr Ocampo formally requested judges at the Hague to open an investigation into the violence as everyone is worried about the next election in Kenya in 2012. He indicated that the trials could take place in Kenya, or at least in Arusha – in Tanzania – where suspects involved in the 1994 Rwanda genocide have been prosecuted. According to reports, prominent Kenyan politicians, including cabinet ministers, are suspected of being behind the violence. The clashes between December 2007 and February 2008 left some 1,300 people dead and forced 300,000 from their homes
