Amnesty International has called on the International Criminal Court (ICC) to investigate armed attacks, looting and rapes reportedly committed by the Boko Haram in Nigeria’s northeastern Borno State.
Citing interviews of villagers in Borno State, the rights group said some attackers wore Nigerian military uniforms, while others wore traditional clothes.
Amnesty International also cited witnesses who said that some children, aged between 15 and 17 years, were also among the militants, along with men in their twenties.
