The role of angiography in the congruence of cardiovascular measurements between autopsy and postmortem imaging.

2026-09-04T00:35:38+00:00

Postmortem CT angiography is the method of choice for the postmortem imaging investigations of the cardiovascular (CV) system. However, autopsy still remains the gold standard for CV measurement. Nevertheless, there are not any studies on CV measurements on the multi-phase postmortem angiography (MPMCTA) which includes comparisons with autopsy. Therefore, the aim of this study is to compare CV measurements between the native CT scan and the three phases of the MPMCTA to find out which of these m[...]

Multiphase Postmortem Computed Tomography Angiography in Pediatrics: A Case Report.

2026-09-04T00:35:37+00:00

Postmortem imaging techniques, especially postmortem computed tomography, have become integral tools in forensic investigations. Multiphase postmortem computed tomography angiography (MPMCTA) visualizes the vascular system in detail and makes it possible to evaluate the perfusion of even the smallest vessels. Although the technique has been well described for adults, no pediatric cases have been reported and no pediatric protocol has been established for this type of investigation. We present th[...]

Elaborating Justice for Victims at the International Criminal Court: Beyond Rhetoric and the Hague

2026-09-04T00:02:58+00:00

Justice for victims has often been invoked as the raison d’être of international criminal justice, by punishing perpetrators of international crimes. This article attempts to provide a more holistic account of justice for victims by examining victims’ needs, interests, and rights. The International Criminal Court itself includes participation, protection and reparation for victims, indicating they are important stakeholders. This article also suggests that victims are integral to the purpose of [...]

Postmortem Internal Gas Reservoir Monitoring Using GCxGC-HRTOFMS

2026-09-03T02:37:24+00:00

peer reviewed ; Forensic investigations often require postmortem examination of a body. However, the collection of evidence during autopsy is often destructive, meaning that the body can no longer be examined in its original state. In order to obtain an internal image of the body, whole body postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) has proven to be a valuable non-destructive tool and is currently used in medicolegal centers. PMCT can also be used to visually locate gas reservoirs inside a cadaver, [...]

Misidentification of victims under international criminal law:An attempted offence?

2026-09-02T14:49:50+00:00

Identity of the victim often constitutes an element of the crime in international offences. For instance, victims of genocide are members of one of certain listed protected groups; civilians are protected individuals under crimes against humanity and war crimes; peacekeeping personnel and prisoners of war are protected persons for certain war crimes. A question then arises what should be the legal outcome in cases where the perpetrator commits one of the underlying crimes with a clear intent to [...]

2026-09-02T03:41:29+00:00

Stalking is not unique for the celebrities. Stalking can occur in several ways, and the victims may react differently.

The Importance of Having a Specific Stalking Law

2026-08-26T14:40:54+00:00

Stalking has been recognized as a phenomenon of multiple unwanted communications intruding on an individual’s life, causing fear for his or her safety. It is a pervasive societal problem, where one in five women in Europe has experienced such violence. Also, stalking is a highly gendered crime where eight of ten stalkers are men stalking women. The high prevalence rate indicates that society must invest many resources in terms of police, social services, health care facilities, and criminal just[...]

2026-08-26T03:39:57+00:00

This thesis investigates the complexities of delivering truth and justice simultaneously in countries undergoing transitions. It argues that designing truth and justice mechanisms as part of a holistic TJ system offers an opportunity for truth and justice to incentivise each other and alleviate some of the challenges and complexities their simultaneous existence creates. The TJ landscape has changed significantly in recent years, embracing a holistic notion entailing the systematic coexistence o[...]

The complementarity turn in international criminal justice:assessing the impact of international criminal tribunals on the fight against impunity

2026-08-25T14:30:57+00:00

For decades, the field of international criminal justice was associated with the promise of new international criminal tribunals. Yet the creation of a permanent international tribunal in 2002 – the International Criminal Court – has turned attention to the fight against impunity at the national level. Complementarity, the jurisdictional framework at the heart of the Rome Statute, is usually credited with this development. Today, it is an article of faith that state- driven accountability, rathe[...]

2026-08-28T00:21:55+00:00

The aim of this article is to address the relationship between aggression, conceived both as an act of a state and as a crime, and responsibility for it under the law in the light of the Russian aggression against Ukraine.

Temperature dependence of viscosity, relaxation times (T1, T2) and simulated contrast for potential perfusates in post-mortem MR angiography (PMMRA).

2026-08-27T01:09:25+00:00

Developments in post-mortem imaging increasingly focus on addressing recognised diagnostic weaknesses, especially with regard to suspected natural deaths. Post-mortem MR angiography (PMMRA) may offer additional diagnostic information to help address such weaknesses, specifically in the context of sudden cardiac death. Complete filling of the coronary arteries and acceptable contrast with surrounding tissue are essential for a successful approach to PMMRA. In this work, the suitability of differe[...]

2026-08-27T01:09:21+00:00

In recent years, forensic imaging has seen impressive developments; however, few studies exist concerning post-mortem magnetic resonance imaging (PMMRI) or post-mortem magnetic resonance angiography (PMMRA). In this article two cases (one traumatic and one natural death) are described in which PMMRA was performed after multi-phase post-mortem computed tomography angiography (MPMCTA) and before the medico-legal autopsy. The results show that most of the contrast medium used and especially almost [...]

Retributive or Reparative Justice? Explaining Post-Conflict Preferences in Kenya

2026-08-14T04:12:30+00:00

In states emerging from mass violence and human rights abuses, do individuals prefer retributive punishment of perpetrators through trials, or do they wish to be compensated with land or monetary reparations for their injuries? How does the concrete option of prosecutions by the International Criminal Court (ICC) moderate these preferences? Using unique survey data from 507 Kenyans collected in 2015, we build on and add nuance to the empirical literature that interrogates the link between exposu[...]

The right to the truth in atrocity trials before municipal courts

Since after the Second World War, the crime of aggression is - along with genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes - a "core crime" under international law. However, despite a formal recognition of aggression as a matter of international criminal law and the reinforcement of the international legal regulation of the use of force by States, numerous international armed conflicts occurred but no one was ever prosecuted for aggression since 1949. This book comprehensively analyses the histo[...]

It is indicated that in modern international law the issue of ensuring the inevitability of punishment for human rights violations is of particular importance. Given the strengthening of the international responsibility of states and individuals for serious crimes against humanity, the implementation of the obligation to punish appears not only as a legal, but also as a moral and political imperative of the world community. It is this principle that determines the ability of the international co[...]

2026-07-30T16:29:29+00:00

The article substantiates a conceptual shift in the understanding of the doctrine of superior orders through the deconstruction of the epistemological conflict between orthodox legalism and the imperatives of substantive justice. It is argued that the traditional dogma of Art. 41 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, centered on the subordinate’s subjective awareness of the order’s unlawfulness, creates a “normative trap” that, in transitional justice contexts, legitimizes institutionalized violence.[...]

The article is devoted to a comprehensive theoretical and applied analysis of the individualisation of punishment through the prism of the principle of proportionality and international human rights protection standards. It is argued that the principle of proportionality is an independent means of law enforcement, which in turn requires compliance with criteria such as justification of punishment and its application with the necessity and sufficiency to achieve the purpose of punishment. The imp[...]
