Moving towards a Harmonized Application of the Law Applicable in War Crimes Cases before Courts in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Issued in August 2008, this report argues that the application of the Criminal Code of Bosnia and Herzegovina in all domestic war crimes proceedings would result in a more consistent and effective system of justice. It also sees a place in this system for a new, state-level judicial institution that would have the final say in the interpretation and application of the relevant law by all courts in the country. Such an institution would also help ensure consistency in the interpretation of the law and help guarantee equality be-fore the law.
