JUST SOCIETY INTERNATIONAL LAW IMMUNITY DOCTRINES PERMITTING HEADS OF STATES AND ASSOCIATES PROSECUTION AVOIDANCE



"The Geneva Conventions and Additional Protocol I establish that certain violations of IHL are to be considered “grave breaches”, and they must be prosecuted by High Contracting Parties on the basis of the principle of universal jurisdiction. Other serious violations of IHL are established by customary international law and by international criminal law treaties. Such serious violations of IHL, together with grave breaches, constitute war crimes. Not all violations of the laws of war are sanctioned in the same manner. The Geneva Conventions and Additional Protocol I identify a limited set of violations – the grave breaches – which are particularly serious violations that give rise to specific obligations of repression for States. Grave breaches must be prosecuted by High Contracting Parties on the basis of the principle of universal jurisdiction. Together with other serious violations of IHL, grave breaches constitute war crimes. : Implementation Mechanisms : ICC Trigger Mechanism : UN International Law On Immunities-75th Session-YB
