The Role of the Judiciary

A Opinions di...

Question

(A) Opinions differ but I am convinced this is a good thing.
(B) Your government may not prosecute you for the crimes you have committed but if your offences are serious enough, the chances are that some court in some other country might.
(C) Every country that values the rule of law must ensure that no individual, regardless of official affiliation, enjoys impunity.
(D) Even if legal concepts like universal jurisdiction remain controversial, the globalization of economic and family life means individuals who violate human rights can no longer count on being shielded forever by the walls of national sovereignty.
(E) As Israeli officers and politicians are today discovering, and as the late Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet realized in 2000, international journeys are an indulgence to be undertaken with extreme caution if your curriculum vitae includes the commission of war crimes, genocide or crimes against humanity.

Solution

The correct option is D
DBEAC

Statement D can be an effective opening sentence of the paragraph as it states the main idea i.e. individuals who violate human rights, can no longer be shielded by the walls of national sovereignty. Therefore, options (b) and (c) stand rejected. Also, DBE is a clear cut link because B elaborates what is mentioned in D and C explains further, whatever is mentioned in B.
Thus, option (d) clearly stands out as the right answer choice.
