List of people indicted in the International Criminal Court
Updated: 5/20/2026, 8:14:05 PM Wikipedia source
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued indictments and arrest warrants for individuals on any counts of genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, aggression, or contempt of court pursuant to the Rome Statute. An individual is indicted when a Pre-Trial Chamber issues either an arrest warrant or a summons after it finds that "there are reasonable grounds to believe that the person has committed a crime within the jurisdiction of the Court". An arrest warrant is issued where it appears necessary "to ensure the person's appearance at trial, to ensure that the person does not obstruct or endanger the investigation or the court proceedings, or, where applicable, to prevent the person from continuing with the commission of that crime or a related crime which is within the jurisdiction of the Court and which arises out of the same circumstances". The Pre-Trial Chamber issues a summons if it is satisfied that a summons is sufficient to ensure the person's appearance.
