ICC is the first permanent court set up to try individuals for genocide, war crimes and other major human rights violations. The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court was established in 1998, and the treaty entered into force on July 1, 2002.India has neither signed nor ratified the Rome Statute on the International Criminal Court (ICC). The reason is that Rome Statute on the International Criminal Court (ICC) defines war crimes including the ‘armed conflict not of an international character’. The court is based in The Hague, Netherlands and is funded by contributions from state parties and by voluntary contributions from governments, organisations and individuals. Basically, ICC focuses on the two bodies of international law that deal with the treatment of individuals, the human rights and humanitarian law.
The ICC is separate from the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the highest legal authority of the United Nations which is also based in The Hague and which was inaugurated in 1946 to resolve disputes between states.
International Court of Justice (ICJ) or the World Court is the primary judicial organ of the UN which settles legal disputes submitted by states. ICJ also gives advisory and opinions on legal questions forwarded by duly authorized international organs, agencies and the UN General Assembly.
