Wikipedia:So when are you going to present the evidence of alleged war crimes against bangladesh by Pakistan to the International War Crimes Tribunal at the Hague?
"After the minimum 20 countries became parties to the Genocide Convention, it came into force as international law on 12 January 1951. At that time however, only two of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council were parties to the treaty, and it was not until after the last of the five permanent members ratified the treaty in 1988, and the Cold War came to an end, that the international law on the crime of genocide began to be enforced. As such, the allegation that genocide took place during the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971 was never investigated by an international tribunal set up under the auspices of the United Nations."
Even so, the ICC in The Hague was not established until 2002.
