Can justice be achieved for Shireen Abu Akleh? | Inside Story

Al Jazeera English published this video item, entitled “Can justice be achieved for Shireen Abu Akleh? | Inside Story” – below is their description.

A month ago, Israeli soldiers shot dead Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh in the occupied West Bank.

Known as the ‘Voice of Palestine’, the Palestinian-American was killed while doing what she’d done for 25 years: telling the stories of resistance to Israeli occupation.

Al Jazeera is referring the case to the International Criminal Court and continues to demand an independent investigation.

But are hopes of accountability fading away?

Presenter: Nick Clark

Guests:

Faten Elwan – Journalist and Friend of Shireen Abu Akleh.

Triestino Mariniello – Reader in Law, Liverpool John Moores University.

Paurline Ades-Mevel – Reporters without Borders.

In This Story: International Criminal Court

The International Criminal Court is an intergovernmental organization and international tribunal that sits in The Hague, Netherlands. The ICC is the first and only permanent international court with jurisdiction to prosecute individuals for the international crimes of genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and the crime of aggression. It is intended to complement existing national judicial systems and it may therefore exercise its jurisdiction only when national courts are unwilling or unable to prosecute criminals.
