Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria wants the International Criminal Case (ICC) to close the case against Deputy President William Ruto and journalist Joshua Sang.
Mr Kuria said the case against Mr Ruto and Mr Sang is headed nowhere after the Appeals Chamber rejected the request by Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda to use recanted evidence in the case.
The lawmaker said that it is just a matter of time before the two accused are declared not guilty.
“Our prayers that DP Ruto and Mr Sang be declared innocent are coming to pass following the Appeals Chamber decision to reject use of recanted evidence,” he said when he attended a mass at Mwiteria Methodist Church in Imenti Central on Sunday.
“Bensouda should now drop the case because she has no evidence to prosecute DP Ruto and Mr Sang,” he added.
Mr Kuria urged Kenyans to continue praying until the case is terminated.
On Friday last week, ICC's Appeals Chamber rejected an earlier ruling made by the Trial Chamber on the application of Rule 68 and use of recanted evidence.
The Appeals Chamber ruled that Rule 68 could not be applied to Mr Ruto and Mr Sang's case because it was passed after the case had already commenced and that using it would be unjust to the two.
Mr Ruto and Mr Sang are accused of committing crimes against humanity during the violence that rocked the country after the disputed presidential elections in 2007.
