How do you legally establish whether a country is guilty of genocide?
Chair of the Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, Judge Navi Pillay, says it’s all about proving intent—a daunting task that South African lawyers are already “halfway” through in their ICJ case against Israel.
Growing up in apartheid-era South Africa, Pillay has spent her career navigating some of the world’s toughest human rights battles.
In conversation with Imran Garda, she opens up about the ongoing atrocities in the occupied Palestinian territories, the challenges of investigating them, and why she believes that, despite its flaws, the UN remains a vital force in the global pursuit of peace.
