THE International Criminal Court Registry has been ordered to monitor any possible movement of wanted journalist Walter Barasa out of Kenya.

Judges handling the case have asked the registry to inform any state party of Barasa's travel or planned travel into their territories.

They said the registrar should send a Note Verbale to the particular state containing a reminder of their obligation to cooperate with the court in the arrest and surrender of that person.

The judges also ordered the registrar to liaise and cooperate with the Office of the Prosecutor in respect of information relating to possible travels of suspects.
