Gotovina et al.,2 Prosecutor v. Krajišnik,3 Prosecutor v. Lukić and Lukić,4 Prosecutor v. Martić,5 Prosecutor v. Mrkšić,6 Prosecutor v. Simić et al.,7 and Prosecutor v. Tolimir.8 2. Annex A provides the 92 proposed adjudicated facts (“Proposed Facts”) that the Stanišić Defence requests the Trial Chamber to consider. II. Applicable Law 3. Rule 115(B) of the Rules states: At the request of a Party or proprio motu, a Trial Chamber, after hearing the Parties, may decide to take judicial notice of adjudicated facts or of the authenticity of documentary evidence from other proceedings of the ICTY, the ICTR, or the Mechanism relating to matters at issue in the current proceedings. 4. In assessing whether to take judicial notice of a fact, the Trial Chamber follows a two-step process.9 Firstly, all Proposed Facts must satisfy the following factors: i. The fact must have some relevance to an issue in the current proceedings;10 1 MICT/1/Rev.1, 18 April 2016. 2 Prosecutor v.

MICT-15-96-PT 2 11 July 2016 735 through one or more of the forms of responsibility enumerated in the Statute;18 and ix. The fact must clearly not be subject to pending appeal or review.19 5. If these factors are satisfied in relation to a Proposed Fact, the Trial Chamber determines whether it should, in the exercise of its discretion, withhold judicial notice on the ground that taking judicial notice of the fact in question would not serve the interests of justice.20 6. In making the decision to withhold judicial notice, even when the proposed adjudicated fact fulfils the requirements laid out above, the Trial Chamber may take several factors into account.21 Facts that are ineligible for judicial notice include those that: (i) go to issues at the “core” of the Prosecution’s case; (ii) contain subjective inferences; (iii) are “unduly broad, vague, tendentious or conclusory”; or (iv) “due to lack of specificity in the original judgement, the Chamber has been unable to readily discern that the fact in question does not refer to the acts, conduct, or mental state of the accused”.22 7. By taking judicial notice of an adjudicated fact pursuant to Rule 115(B) of the Rules, the Trial Chamber will achieve greater judicial economy by not revisiting adjudicated details contained in other final judgements at the Tribunal arising from the same or similar factual premises or scenarios. The Defence submits that by taking judicial notice of the Proposed Facts listed in Annex A, the Trial Chamber will be able to devote a greater proportion of trial time to the core issues in the case. 18 Hadžić Trial Decision, para. 11; Prosecutor v.

  • Deterring Wartime Atrocities Deterring Wartime Jacqueline R
    Deterring Wartime Atrocities Deterring Wartime Jacqueline R. Atrocities McAllister Hard Lessons from the Yugoslav Tribunal How can the interna- tional community deter government and rebel forces from committing atroc- ities against civilians? Long after liberated Nazi concentration camp survivors held up the ªrst sign declaring, “Never Again!” civilians have faced genocide during civil wars around the world, from Bangladesh to the former Yugoslavia, and more recently in northern Iraq. Sexual violence, torture, and forced dis- appearances are among the other horrors that civilians continue to endure in wartime. In the 1990s, international ofªcials sought to respond to such suffering by es- tablishing a new generation of wartime international criminal tribunals (ICTs), starting with the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in 1993. The ICTY paved the way for the establishment of the perma- nent International Criminal Court (ICC) ªve years later. Unlike earlier ICTs in Nuremberg and Tokyo, as well as more recent war crimes tribunals in Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Cambodia, East Timor, Lebanon, Bosnia, and Kosovo, the ICTY and the ICC are mandated to prosecute international criminal law violations committed in the context of active armed conºicts. In granting the ICTY and the ICC such authority, their founders hoped that the tribu- nals would deter combatants in those conºicts from perpetrating violence against civilians.1 Nevertheless, more than twenty-ªve years after the ICTY opened its doors, international justice scholars continue to debate the role of wartime tribunals in deterring atrocities against civilians, particularly in ongoing conºicts. Skep- tics contend that, in the heat of battle, combatants are unlikely to perceive a Jacqueline R.

  • PUBLLISHED by Radovan Karadzic: Wartime Leader’S Years on Trial
    PUBLLISHED BY Radovan Karadzic: Wartime Leader’s Years on Trial A collection of all the articles published by BIRN about Radovan Karadzic’s trial before the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and the UN’s International Residual Mechanism for Criminal Tribunals. This e-book contains news stories, analysis pieces, interviews and other articles on the trial of the former Bosnian Serb leader for crimes including genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity during the conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Produced by the Balkan Investigative Reporting Network. Introduction Radovan Karadzic was the president of Bosnia’s Serb-dominated Repub- lika Srpska during wartime, when some of the most horrific crimes were committed on European soil since World War II. On March 20, 2019, the 73-year-old Karadzic faces his final verdict after being initially convicted in the court’s first-instance judgment in March 2016, and then appealing. The first-instance verdict found him guilty of the Srebrenica genocide, the persecution and extermination of Croats and Bosniaks from 20 municipal- ities across Bosnia and Herzegovina, and being a part of a joint criminal enterprise to terrorise the civilian population of Sarajevo during the siege of the city. He was also found guilty of taking UN peacekeepers hostage. Karadzic was initially indicted by the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in 1995. He then spent 12 years on the run, and was finally arrested in Belgrade in 2008 and extradited to the UN tribunal. As the former president of the Republika Srpska and the supreme com- mander of the Bosnian Serb Army, he was one of the highest political fig- ures indicted by the Hague court.

    Heroes of yesterday, war criminals of today: the Serbian paramilitary units fifteen years after the armed conflict of former Yugoslavia Keywords: paramilitary, Serbia, war crimes, media, former Yugoslavia, veterans Abstract: The aim of the paper is to describe the transformation, primarily through the medias, the image of the Serbian paramilitary unit members employed during the armed conflict of the 90es in the period of the decomposition of the former Yugoslavia. At the beginning, represented as „heroes‟, „saviors‟, „protectors‟ of the „serbianhood‟ (srpstvo), ever present main figures of the public life – their public image has gone through a couple of change. Once they were the role models for the young generation, only after the fall of the regime (2000) their involvement in war crimes, mass rape, looting and genocide attained Serbia. Several landmark trials offered a glimpse into their role during the series of the conflicts. Once warlords, with a status of pop icons, the embodiment of mythical warriors and epic bandits, they are no more the living archetypes of collective remembrance, although their responsibility remain unquestionable for a part of the contemporary society. * The paper‟s aim is to describe the transformation, primarily through the medias, of the image of the Serbian paramilitary unit members employed during the armed conflict of the 90es in the period of the decomposition of the former Yugoslavia.
