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.

The judgments have also had a significant effect on the definition of specific crimes.
