Gbagbo’s appearance at the International Criminal Court in the Hague will start on Thursday after several postponements.
He is facing charges of crimes against humanity which were committed during the bloody post-election crisis that left 3,000 people dead in 2010-2011.
His trial is being awaited by his supporters as well as those of incumbent President Alassane Ouattara, with both camps expressing a desire to “know the truth.” Enditem
