Prosecution’s Response to Defence Evidence

The Prosecution contended that the Defence had submitted little documentary evidence and that none of it went to the core of the Prosecution case, ie the criminal liability of Mr Lubanga for the crimes charged. Specifically, the Prosecution mentioned that much of the Defence evidence was irrelevant and challenged it on several grounds, including: that it dealt with a time period outside the one relevant for the charges in question; that it consisted of documents produced by the Union des Patriotes Congolais (UPC) itself which amounted to propaganda; and that no neutral third party evidence was adduced.
