The tribunal said it has to give full explanation on how al-Bashir was able to leave an AU Union summit in South Africa and fly home.

The Sudanese President had been accused of masterminding genocide in Darfur.
His flight back home was in defiance of a ruling by a South African court ordering his detention under a warrant from the International Criminal Court (ICC).
South Africa, a member of the ICC, is obliged to enforce warrants from the Hague-based tribunal.
The tribunal said in cases where a member of the ICC fails to cooperate, the tribunal may refer the matter to the Assembly of States Parties, the ICC’s governing body.
It can also take the matter up with the U.N. Security Council, which established the court and has the power to impose sanctions.

President Jacob Zuma has defended the decision to let al-Bashir leave the country, saying as a leader, he has immunity as a guest of the African Union.
