Tadić case

The Tadić case is a landmark legal decision by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in 1995, which clarified how international law defines crimes committed during conflict. It established that individuals, regardless of rank, can be held responsible for serious violations like genocide and war crimes. The case also outlined the tribunal's procedures, including fair trial rights and the criteria for prosecuting those accused of crimes against humanity. Tadić’s case significantly shaped international criminal law, reinforcing accountability and the importance of justice for victims of conflict.
