Example 1: Côte d’Ivoire “In the light of the information that it has gathered, the Commission concludes that there are reasonable grounds for presuming, in relation to the post-electoral events, the individual criminal responsibility of certain persons whose names appear on the confidential list annexed to this report, which may be transmitted to the competent authorities for the purposes of a judicial investigation.”172 Example 2: Democratic People’s Republic of Korea “Where testimony or other information received by the Commission indicated the names of individuals who committed, ordered, solicited or aided and abetted crimes against humanity, these have been duly recorded. This was also done where the Commission could ascertain the names of individuals who headed particular departments, prison camps or institutions implicated in crimes against humanity. Relevant information has been safeguarded in the Commission’s confidential database. The Commission has authorized the OHCHR, acting as the residual Secretariat of the Commission, to provide access to such information to competent authorities that carry out credible investigations for the purposes of ensuring accountability for crimes and other violations committed, establishing the truth about violations committed or implementing United Nations-mandated targeted sanctions against particular individuals or institutions. The Commission has requested the HC to grant access only to the extent that witnesses or other sources of information concerned have given their informed consent and that any protection and operational concerns are duly addressed.”173 A/HRC/17/48 & 49, 2011, para. 118 (emphasis added). A/HCR/25/CRP.1, 2014, para. 1196 (emphasis added). 172 173 DOSSIERS ON RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUALS 103
