ICC UNLIKELY TO TOUCH MILITARY ENVIRONMENTAL CRIME WASHINGTON, DC,
September 9, 2002 (ENS) - The International Criminal Court is not likely
to prosecute environmental crimes due to military actions, a new report
prepared for the U.S. Army Environmental Policy Institute concludes. It
examines the possibilities of environmental damage during military
action becoming a criminal liability for military personnel and/or their
contractors before the newly formed International Criminal Court (ICC).
