Darfur rebel will not face ICC charges

The first Darfur war crimes suspect to face international judges has had the charges dropped against him .
Rebel leader Bahar Idriss Abu Garda,  had been accused of planning the killing of 12 African Union peacekeepers in 2007.
Last week, the International Criminal Court (ICC) said charges of genocide against Sudan's President Omar al-Bashir could be resubmitted.
But  (ICC) judges ruled that there was not enough evidence to support a trial. 
Mr Bashir is already wanted for war crimes.
