Description
Summary:This program offers an analysis of plans for a United Nations' War Crimes Tribunal to deal with atrocities committed in the former Yugoslavia; those modern-day countries include Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Serbia and Montenegro, and Slovenia. The conflicts during the 1990s were many and, as you can imagine, prosecuting war crimes can be a long and complex process. Charlayne Hunter-Gault, Arey Neier of Human Rights Watch and Feryal Gharahi of Equality Now, a women's group that supported rape victims in Bosnia. Looking back, we learn how in the early years only a tiny fraction of funds needed to convene a War Crimes Tribunal had been allocated and only one person was working full time at on-site investigations. Today, however, the International Criminal Tribunal has indicted over 160 individuals.
