Sudan's Bashir will not attend OIC summit-Turk officials
> Bashir, for whom an international arrest warrant has been issued for crimes against humanity in Sudan's Darfur region, had announced plans to attend a meeting of the Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC) on Monday. "We have learned that he is not coming," a Turkish government official told Reuters on condition of anonymity, without elaborating. Predominantly Muslim Turkey, which is seeking EU membership, had come under pressure from Brussels and international human rights groups to drop Bashir from the guest list.
