@ Liv, You've lost me. The statute reads of a right to a public hearing.
Appearing during those proceedings is an OBLIGATION. That's why the moment one fails to attend, a warrant of arrest is issued.
If it was a right, Bashir would have his case going on with his attorneys representing him,enabling him to move freely.
Don't you think?
The right in you quote above is for a public hearing.
Or did i read my own stuff?
@Mkeiyd, Why do you allow yourself to be lost.
Read the Rome statutes for yourself and make your own conclusions. Is that too hard? @liv, This is what i got from the statute. Refer to the part in red. PART 6. THE TRIAL Article 62 Place of trial Unless otherwise decided, the place of the trial shall be the seat of the Court. Article 63 Trial in the presence of the accused 1. The accused shall be present during the trial. 2. If the accused, being present before the Court, continues to disrupt the trial, the Trial Chamber may remove the accused and shall make provision for him or her to observe the trial and instruct counsel from outside the courtroom, through the use of communications technology, if required. Such measures shall be taken only in exceptional circumstances after other reasonable alternatives have proved inadequate, and only for such duration as is strictly required Ya! Also thought the particular Rome statute relied upon by @Liv stated clearly the words: subject to Article 63. @Mkeiyd you nailed it bro!  Conventional thinkers waste time building shelters when they are unnecessary and then have no shelters when they need them the most. Socionomists do the opposite.
