The prosecution will start presenting its evidence in January 2016, \u201cat a date to be confirmed\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The Court set the trial opening date in light of \u201cthe Prosecutor's undertaking that the disclosure of evidence will be completed no later than end of June 2015, as well as the Defence's submissions regarding the time needed for preparation\u201d, says the ICC press release.
