Sudanese President Omar al-Beshir greets supporters during his tour in El-Fasher in north Darfur yesterday, guarded by bristling security, and dismissed as lies accusations that he masterminded genocide in the region. ICC prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo last week accused Beshir of instructing his forces to annihilate three non-Arab groups in Darfur, masterminding murder, torture, pillaging and using rape to commit genocide.
