Could this be the first case to be completed?

Quite honestly I don't think the Hague has a track record worthy of praise.

Perhaps this case will go the full distance...don't go holding your breath.

Ivory Coast's Laurent Gbagbo appears at ICC in Hague

Quote:

Ivory Coast's Laurent Gbagbo has become the first former head of state to appear at the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
He faces four charges of crimes against humanity, including murder and rape, in the wake of Ivory Coast's disputed presidential elections a year ago.
Some 3,000 people were killed in violence after Mr Gbagbo refused to accept defeat in the 2010 polls.
He was not asked to plead but has denied responsibility for the violence.

But I am skeptical, because of foreign presence.
