When was International Criminal Court for Rwanda established
Moreover, in early 1990s the International Criminal Tribunal for Yugoslavia (ICTY) was established under UNSC Resolution 808, resulting from the outburst of killings in the State, for the trial of war crimes at International level. Similarly, the International Criminal Court for Rwanda (ICTR) was established following the killings and war crimes prevailing at that time in the State. This led to the debate of introducing a permanent international court heading the responsibility of trying all the nationals engaged in war crimes, genocide and crimes against humanity at one forum. The International Law Commission drafted the proposal for the establishment of international court which was later debated and resulted in the enactment of Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court-multi lateral treaty. Finally, after 60 states signed and ratified the ICC treaty, the ICC came into force into 2002.
