“A wide variety of actors – both state and non-state – are serious violations and abuse of accused, in many cases on war crimes result,” concluded the high Commissioner of United Nations for human rights, Said Raad al-Hussein (Artikelfoto). The international community had committed to make the offender accountable and in front of the International criminal court to indict.
