Kony 'committed to peace' in Uganda

Ugandan rebel leader Joseph Kony has told journalists that he is committed to negotiating peace after 19 years of war, and denied he has committed war crimes.

Kony, whose Lord’s Resistance Army is fighting a rebellion in northern Uganda, rarely appears in public. He emerged from the bush on Monday to meet a delegation of officials and lawmakers from northern and eastern Uganda and representatives of private development and peace organisations.
