Hello, guys.
I'm currently writing a story that handles a case of a regent getting prosecuted for leading a campaign of genocide against a neighbouring several years ago.
It involves sacking undefended towns, enslaving and/or massacring their populations, hiding their bodies in mass graves, as well as ignoring the laws and customs of war and diplomatic immunity.
My question is, how would in such a case be the defence and prosecution teams of the court be composed?
What people would be involved (case-related experts, court representatives, clerks and secretaries, the heading figures, etc)?
And who supplies/engages those people for the uses of the court (maybe the registry, or the head prosecutor/defence counsel themselves, etc)?
I'm assuming that the regent's legal representation is getting supplied by the court for her.
Also, what bodies/organisations/individuals would be the ones conducting research and investigation at the sites (I'm considering local armed forces, Blue Helmets, White Helmets, and the ICMP, but who else/who not?)
Thanks in advance for any information!
