Crime and Punishment | Panel II: The wheels of justice | Václav Havel Human Rights Prize Conference 2022

The jubilee 10th international conference in honour of the laureate of the 2022 Václav Havel Human Prize | Crime and Punishment : Crimes against peace and humanity and the wheels of justice Massive violations of human rights, such as the ones occurring as a result of the Russian aggression against Ukraine, not only present horrific scenes of human suffering and depravity but pose difficult questions of transformational justice. Apart from the imperative of an immediate and unconditional end to the atrocities, it is incumbent on humanity to document and record for posterity every single instance of human rights violation and to bring to justice those responsible, in order to prevent the repetition of such crimes. Panellists: Veronika Bílková – professor of international law focused on international security and human rights, vice president of the European Society of International Law Vladimír Dzuro – former investigator with the Office of the Prosecutor at the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia Tomáš Holub – Roman Catholic priest and Plzeň bishop, first Czech military chaplain Chair: Lenka Kabrhelová – Journalist, reporter, head of the podcast 5:59, Seznam Zprávy
