This article reflects on the landmark use of photo and video evidence in the Affaire Castro et Kizito. In 2018, a mobile military court in Kalehe, South Kivu, in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) tried two members of the Forces Démocratiques de Libération du Rwanda (FDLR) for crimes against humanity and war crimes. This case broke new ground not only in the DRC, but also globally. For the first time, a court of law admitted digital photography that had been captured with the eyeWitness app, a ready-for-court technology developed to streamline the documentation of international crimes. The authors of this article are legal advisers who were involved in the case and write from their own experience to illustrate how photo and video evidence can strengthen cases and advance justice for the gravest crimes.

移动技术在记录国际犯罪中的作用

本文反映了 Affaire Castro et Kizito 中具有里程碑意义的照片和视频证据的使用。2018 年,刚果民主共和国 (DRC) 南基伍省 Kalehe 的一个流动军事法庭审判了两名解放卢旺达民主力量 (FDLR) 成员的危害人类罪和战争罪。此案不仅在刚果民主共和国,而且在全球范围内都开辟了新天地。法庭首次承认了使用 eyeWitness 应用程序拍摄的数码照片,该应用程序是一种可用于法庭的技术,旨在简化国际犯罪的记录。本文的作者是参与此案的法律顾问,并根据自己的经验撰写,以说明照片和视频证据如何加强案件并为最严重的罪行伸张正义。
