Families of the people who were brutally killed by soldiers in Guinea nearly six months ago may soon start to see the process of justice taking place.

The deputy Chief Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), Fatou Bensouda is in the capital Conakry to investigate the massacre of up to 150 civilians during a protest there.

Those killings and a botched assassination attempt on junta leader Captain Dadis Camara later led to a political crisis.

Network Africa's Stephane Mayoux asked Dr Thierno Sow, an official of Guinea's Human Rights Commission which has been collating information on the killings, what was expected of the ICC mission.
