Sudan's Minister of Humanitarian Affairs Ahmed Haroun talks during a Reuters interview in Khartoum September 16, 2008. Trying to arrest Sudan's president for war crimes in Darfur could prolong and complicate the conflict, the minister who is accused by international prosecutors of inciting mass killings in the region said on Tuesday. Haroun, who denies the charges against him, told Reuters the International Criminal Court's move to indict President Omar Hassan al-Bashir was part of a Western plot to launch a "new colonisation" of Africa and said it could spread instability across the whole region.
