Crimes against humanity. INTRODUCTION The OCC charged defendants with crimes against humanity in all twelve trials.1 Those crimes were enumerated in Article II(1)(c) of Law No. 10: Atrocities and offenses, including but not limited to murder, extermination, enslavement, deportation, imprisonment, torture, rape, or other inhumane acts committed against any civilian population, or persecutions on political, racial or religious grounds whether or not in violation of the domestic laws of the country where perpetrated. Although Article II(1)(c) overlapped considerably with Article II(1)(b), the war- crimes provision, there were two important differences. First, Article II(1)(c) criminalized “persecutions” as well as atrocities and offenses. Second, whereas Article II(1)(b) applied to war crimes committed against “civilian population from occupied territory,” Article II(1)(c) applied to “any civilian population,” indicating that crimes against humanity could be committed outside of occupied territory.
Crimes against humanity namely, murder, extermination, enslavement, deportation, and other inhumane acts committed against any civilian population, before or during the war; or persecutions on political, racial or religious grounds in execution of or in connection with any crime within the jurisdiction of the Tribunal, whether or not in violation of domestic law of the country where perpetrated . Leaders, organizers, instigators and accomplices participating in the formulation or execution of a common plan or conspiracy to commit any of the foregoing crimes are responsible for all acts performed by any persons in execution of such plan.
