Nobel Peace laureate Pillay urges 'rogue states' not to attack ICC

Nobel Peace laureate Pillay has called on "rogue states" not to attack the International Criminal Court (ICC), according to a report from Kyodo News.

The remarks came as the ICC faces pressure and criticism from a range of countries, including major powers that are not members of the court.

The ICC had previously become a focus of controversy when it issued arrest warrants for several senior figures, drawing reactions from a number of governments.

Details of when Pillay made the remarks and the full content of her statements have not been widely released.
