Abstract
The problem of war criminals has aroused controversy between those who insist that enemy persons guilty of acts which have shocked the conscience of mankind shall be punished and those who insist that the United Nations must observe principles of civilized justice. Those principles require that an individual shall not be punished for an act, however shocking, unless the act was a crime under the law applicable at the time and place where it was committed (nulla poena sine lege), and unless the guilt of the individual has been established by a competent court utilizing fair procedures (due process of law).
