BREAKING: Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has been referred to the International Criminal Court as an accessory to genocide in Gaza making him the 1st leader of a Western nation referred to the ICC under Article 15 of the Rome Statute. 100+ Australian lawyers back this move
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
There has not been a referral to the ICC. Birchgrove Legal, a Sydney law firm, has asked the ICC’s Prosecutor to begin an own motion case. The media release incorrectly said this was a ‘referral’. birchgrovelegal.com.au/wp-content/upl…
