ICTR distances itself from Human Rights Watch

May 18th, 2008 • Africa, Law

Strange news from the ICTR, the Prosecutor has distanced itself from Human Rights Watch claiming that HRW sources are “inadmissible and not very reliable. This is because of the HRW resisting ICTR attempts to move trials to Rwandan courts to fulfil its completion strategy and ignores the fact that the Prosecutor has used HRW sources in virtually all trials.
