Former Ugandan dictator Idi Amin died Saturday at the age of 78 while living in exile in Saudi Arabia. He ruled Uganda from 1971 to 1979. During this time, up to 400,000 people were killed or disappeared out of a population of 12 million. He was never tried before an international court. A representative from Amnesty International said “Amin’s death is a sad comment on the international community’s inability to hold leaders accountable for gross human rights abuses. It was the international community’s indifference that allowed Amin to escape justice.’
