5. Here is an interview with the head of the #IIMM who explains how the group is working. TRIGGER WARNING: the video contains grave violence (footage from #Myanmar). The title is also misleading, but what Nicholas Koumjian says here, is really important.https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-asia-57332985 …
6. Check out the website of #IIMM (https://iimm.un.org/ ) for more information, resources & the group's media work. There is also an official FB-page https://www.facebook.com/MyanmarMechanism … If you believe you have information that could be useful to the Myanmar Mechanism, here's the contact
7. Contact them at +41 76 691 12 08 via Signal or at iimm@un.org by email to discuss how information relating to individual criminal responsibility for the most serious international crimes or violations of international law committed in Myanmar from 2011-now can be shared
8. " The Mechanism also has a number of other encrypted means of communication for receiving information, which can be provided as needed. Your safety and security, and of all others with whom we interact, are very important to us" see more Q and A here: https://iimm.un.org/qa/
9. The "Independent Investigative Mechanism for Myanmar" is a novel instrument within the #UN - there's only a Impartial Independent Mechanism for Syria (IIIM) and a UN Accountability Team for Da’esh (UNITAD) that is similar, but that's it, really. https://iimm.un.org/myanmar-mechanism-participates-in-event-with-other-un-accountability-mechanisms/ …
10. I thought I'd share this information with everyone interested as it is not widely known so far. The #UN is thus doing more than issuing statements. They are collecting evidence that will eventually be put to use in national and international courts. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
11. I previously posted about the possibility of nat. Govs to also prosecute the Generals. See link below under this thread in the discussion with @RealMALxoxo
12. There’s also the possibility of int. tribunals - as currently happening in the case of the “Uyghur tribunal” against China. Led by lawyer G. Nice, who also led the UN prosecution for war crimes of the late former Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic.https://news.yahoo.com/news/uyghur-tribunal-convene-over-abuses-015424833.html?guccounter=1#click=https://t.co/BnzdCgAL3B …
13. This tribunal, that begins its official work today, has no legal force but collects evidence that can then be used by others who do have legal power. In all cases, states will be required to act upon that evidence in order for there to be real effects #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
