The European Parliament today (March 16) called on Senegal to bring Hissène Habré to trial or extradite the former dictator of Chad to Belgium, where he is wanted to stand trial. Habré's victims and their supporters cheered the European Parliament's decision. Habré, who fled to Senegal in 1990 after an eight-year rule marked by widespread atrocities, was first indicted in 2000 in Senegal.
