This article uses the context of Uganda to examine the role of technology in the prosecution of international crimes. It uses the International Criminal Court (icc)complementarity framework to analyse two cases — Dominic Ongwen and Thomas Kwoyelo, exploring a question — whether the use of technology enhances the icc’s positive complementarity approach? The article draws substantially from the review of empirical literature, qualitative interviews and the author’s work experiences at the two sites of justice - Uganda and The Hague. The article reveals a practical overlap between the two sites of justice in the use of digital evidence and witness protection. It is argued that use of technology enhances the criminal trial procedures, victims’ rights and the legitimacy of the courts. It is equally argued that the use of technology has the potential to enhance the icc’s complementarity approach. The article contributes to current debates about the role of technology in international criminal justice.

技术作为起诉国际犯罪的关键工具:乌干达的经验教训

本文使用乌干达的背景来研究技术在起诉国际犯罪中的作用。它使用国际刑事法院 ( icc ) 的互补性框架来分析两个案例——Dominic OngwenThomas Kwoyelo,探讨一个问题——技术的使用是否增强了icc的积极互补方法?本文主要借鉴了实证文献回顾、定性访谈和作者在两个司法机构——乌干达和海牙的工作经历。该文章揭示了两个司法场所在使用数字证据和证人保护方面的实际重叠。有人认为,技术的使用增强了刑事审判程序、受害者的权利和法院的合法性。同样有人认为,技术的使用有可能增强ICC的互补性方法。这篇文章有助于当前关于技术在国际刑事司法中的作用的辩论。
