363. The Appeals Chamber recalls that proof of the existence of a “high level genocidal plan” is not required in order to convict an accused of genocide[1] or for the mode of liability of instigation to commit genocide.[2] Accordingly, the Appeals Chamber finds no error on the part of the Trial Chamber in considering as unnecessary proof of a nexus between the Appellant’s crimes and a national campaign.

138. […] [The Trial Chamber] further opined (and the Appeals Chamber agrees) that even though a genocidal plan is not a constituent element of the crime of genocide, the existence of such a plan would be strong evidence of the specific intent requirement for the crime of genocide.[1] [1] Ibid. [Trial Judgment], para. 276. |
