This was the first case of its kind on the African continent to be conducted under the complementarity principle of the International Criminal Court (ICC).<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Justice Gaswaga is also a Fellow of the Commonwealth Judicial Education Institute, Halifax, Canada and an international Resource Person in many areas of law.
