Description

In May 2012, the Appeals Chamber unanimously rejected defence challenges to the ICC’s jurisdiction over the Kenya situation. Therefore, it is likely that the threat of separatism and even increased Uyghur autonomy triggered China’s resort to hostility. 19 Although China’s heavily criticized one-child policy has been lifted in 2015, family policies are still targeting Uyghurs. The Court shall determine the applicability of the grounds for excluding criminal responsibility provided for in this Statute to the case before it. Thus, the threat of losing that territory explains China’s hostility towards the group inhabiting it – the Uyghurs. On 6 September 2018, the PTC I declared the Court’s jurisdiction over the alleged deportation. Any foreign mention of the East Turkistan republic would be seen as extremist propaganda and a direct threat to China’s sovereignty. The Prosecutor shall analyse the seriousness of the information received. Partial implementation of ICC crimes into national law followed in 2014. In addition to the materials supplied by the Commission, the ICC prosecutor received information from Kenyan authorities on witness protection measures and the status of national legal proceedings.
