Hundreds of thousands of Yemenis are demonstrating across the country today to demand President Ali Abdullah Saleh face trial for charges ranging from corruption to deadly crackdowns on protests. Last week, Saleh signed a deal in Saudi Arabia in which he agreed to step down in return for immunity from prosecution for himself and his family. Mass protests have taken place since Saleh returned to Yemen Saturday night. On Monday, Yemeni Nobel Peace laureate Tawakkul Karman traveled to The Hague to ask the International Criminal Court to investigate Saleh.

Tawakkul Karman, Nobel Prize winner 2011: “I promised the people in Yemen, the youth, the whole people in Yemen, women, children, all them, I told them that after they announced that I win Nobel Peace Prize, that the first job I will do is taking the file of criminal—of crimes of Ali Saleh to the ICC. I am here to tell ICC they have to try Ali Saleh and all his regime when they kill people.”
