Annotation:
This is the official site of the International Criminal Tribunal for the
former-Yugoslavia (ICTY). The tribunal was established in 1993 by UN Security Council Resoution to prosecute those responsible for
the crimes against humanity, war crimes and genocide in the former-Yugoslavia. The site includes basic legal documents of the Tribunal (i.e. Statute, Rules of Procedure & Evidence),
lists of indictments, judgements, cases summaries and press releases. Of particular interest to WHRR users seeking resources on women and armed conflict is the
December 1998 decision of Prosecutor v. Anto Furundzija, which analyses
the prohibition on torture and the prohibition on rape and other serious sexual
assaults at international law.
