Shifts in Complementarity Sample Clauses

Shifts in Complementarity. The creation of Uganda’s ICD initially placed the ICC and the Ugandan government in an antagonistic relationship. As the ICD has developed, however, its origins as an outcome of the A&R Agreement have evolved away from a competition- based model of complementarity—a way to displace the ICC—towards a more harmonious, cooperative vision of the principle. The ICD’s website states that, “While originally meant to be part of a comprehensive peace agreement with the LRA, the International Crimes Division has come to be viewed as a court of ‘complementarity’ with respect to the International Criminal Court, thus fulfilling the principle of complementarity stipulated in the preamble and Article 1 of the Rome Statute.”537 A 2010 publication of the Uganda Law Society likewise notes that, “the War Crimes Division of the High Court of Uganda has been set up as a complementary institution to the ICC,” while the Ugandan Victims Foundation’s legal advisor has suggested that a “running and well equipped WCD of Uganda has the potential of becoming a regional criminal tribunal which may complement well the work of the ICC.”538 And in the words of one judicial spokesperson, “[T]his court now complements the [International Criminal Court]. We now have the equivalent of Geneva or The Hague in Africa.”539 the ICD. A similar unit resides within the Criminal Investigations Department and is responsible for investigating crimes that may be tried before the Division. 533 Human Rights Watch, “Justice for Serious Crimes Before National Courts: Uganda’s International Crimes Division” (2012), 19. 534JLOS, “Frequently Asked Questions on the International Crimes Divisions of the High Court of Uganda,” 5, at xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxx.xx.xx/files/downloads/ICD_FAQs.pdf . 535 See JLOS, “Annual Performance Report 2009/2010” (September 2010), 9. 536 “‘The Dust Has Not Yet Settled’: Victims’ Views on the Right to Remedy and Reparation, - A Report from the Greater North of Uganda,” United National Human Rights Office of the High Commissioners (Kampala, 2011), 59.
