The International Criminal Court on Tuesday postponed a hearing to confirm charges against former Ivorian president Laurent Gbagbo, but did not give a date for a new hearing.

“Today, following the request submitted by Laurent Gbagbo's defence, the pre-trial chamber of the International Criminal Court decided to postpone the opening of the confirmation of charges hearing in the case the Prosecutor v. Laurent Gbagbo,” it said in a statement. – Sapa-AFP
