An Analysis of the Different Options for the Residual Functions of the Ad Hoc International Criminal Tribunals Katarina Pohlod M00376872 A thesis submitted to Middlesex University in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of PhD School of Law July 2017 United Nations Mechanism for International Criminal Tribunals: Necessary or Avoidable? An Analysis of the Different Options for the Residual Functions of the Ad Hoc International Criminal Tribunals Katarina Pohlod Abstract When closing ad hoc Tribunals, the Security Council is faced with the problem of how to deal with the residual functions that need to be carried out after the Tribunals’ closure. In the cases of the ICTY, ICTR and SCSL, the Security Council established the UN Mechanism for International Tribunals and the Residual Special Court for Sierra Leone to solve that issue. Tis thesis discusses the question of whether it was necessary to establish the UN Mechanism for International Tribunals or whether another solution might have been preferable. Obviously, this question was considered by scholars at the time when the Residual Mechanism was established. This thesis reconsiders the question in light of the case law and practice of the Residual Mechanism. The Residual Mechanism was established to operate for an initial period of four years. Unless the Security Council decides otherwise after reviewing the Residual Mechanism’s work, it continues to operate for subsequent periods of two years. This thesis constitutes the first research of the entire legal framework and the case law of the Residual Mechanism. It is a contribution to legal literature and history. It provides an examination of different options for dealing with the residual functions, because it would still be possible to transfer those. One option would be to transfer the functions back to the domestic authorities of the affected countries. But, although judicial capacities have improved, issues still exist. Transferring these functions to other states would be difficult, because states are not willing or able to take over the Tribunals’ functions. The option of an international body, such as the ICC taking over the functions would be impracticable because it would require amendments to the Rome Statute. Therefore, in order to demonstrate that the international legal system is working and to achieve a deterrent effect the Residual Mechanism is necessary. But this thesis also points out that it would have been a better option to create a joint mechanism including the ICTY, ICTR, and SCSL. Future ad hoc criminal tribunals requiring mechanisms with functions similar to those of the Residual Mechanism could be appended to it.

INTRODUCTION ¶1 Rwanda is widely considered a poster child for post conflict development. Since the 1994 genocide, in which an estimated 800,000 people lost their lives, 1 the country has gone through a rapid process of socio-economic development. In the last 10 years, Rwanda’s GDP growth has averaged 7.4 %, nearly double the regional average. 2 Rwanda is the only country in Sub-Saharan Africa that is on track to meet its health related millennium development goals 3 and the only country in the world where women hold a majority of seats in the national legislature.

  • The Mucyo Commission Report Hinges on the Thesis That the RPF Has Called the ‘Planned Tutsi Genocide’ by the Former Rwandan Regime
    Arusha, the 6th of October, 2008 From: the Political Prisoners of the UN, at the UN Detention Center (UNDF), Arusha – Tanzania To: The President of the UN Security Council The Secretary General of the UN The President of the ICTR Subject: Reaction to the Rwandan Government’s report accusing France of being complicit in the genocide Dear Sirs, We, the UN political prisoners in Arusha signatory to this letter, have the honor of sending you our reactions to the Report of the ‘National Independent Commission charged with gathering evidence to show the implication of the French government in the genocide perpetrated in Rwanda in 1994’, hereafter referred to as the ‘Mucyo Commission’. As to the context of this Report, you will recall that the establishment of this Commission by the Rwandan government was made public five months after the journalist Stephen Smith, writing in the French daily Le Monde of 9 March 2004, revealed the results of the investigation conducted by Judge Jean-Louis Bruguière, which held that General [Paul] Kagame had ordered the attack of 6 April 1994. It also appears that, for all practical purposes, the Mucyo Commission began its work after the publication of the judicial order by Judge Bruguière in November 2006. In February 2008, Spanish Judge Fernando Andreu Merelles issued arrest warrants against forty military officers of the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) for the parts they played in the genocide and for other crimes against Humanity they committed in Rwanda. So this Report against France is an attempt to distract the attention of the national and international public from the criminal indictments against President Kagame and his closest collaborators issued by French Judge Jean-Louis Bruguière and Spanish Judge Fernando Andreu Merelles.
