How Aussie soldiers could be prosecuted for war crimes

Special Forces soldiers accused of committing war crimes in Afghanistan will be prosecuted under an obscure international law known as the Rome Statute. News Corp understands any prosecutions brought as a result of the Brereton inquiry will be dealt with under the specific statute of the International Criminal Court. An act of Parliament passed in 2002, the International Criminal Court Act, established a legal pathway for international war crimes to be dealt with under Australian domestic law. Australia is one of 123 signatories to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, based in The Hague. The statute means the internationally-recognised crimes of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity are criminalised under Australian law.
