International criminal law is a body of public international law designed to prohibit certain categories of conduct commonly viewed as serious atrocities and to make perpetrators of such conduct criminally accountable for their perpetration.

"Any person who commits an act which constitutes a crime under international law is responsible therefore and liable to punishment." So this includes the staff.

"The fact that a person acted pursuant to order of his Government or of a superior does not relieve him from responsibility under international law, provided a moral choice was in fact possible to him".

The core crimes under international law are genocide, crimes against humanity, and the crime of aggression.

The DWP have aggressively harassed people with mental health issues, who are the most vulnerable targets.

Claimants who suffer from depression are being given a difficult time. This is harmful as this condition is known fact that can lead to suicide.

The UK figure is nearer 4,000 but could be as high as 81,140 welfare reform deaths click here for evidence and official statistics.

Sufferers with this personality disorder usually also suffer anxiety, social phobias, panic attacks and also suicidal tendencies.

Yet they are still being passed onto CHDA (Centre for Health and disability Assessments) to be expected to travel on crowded trains or buses.

“Staggering” figures show that the proportion of people claiming the main out-of-work disability benefit who have attempted suicide doubled between 2007 and 2014.

Public health experts from the Universities of Liverpool and Oxford showed in a study that, for every 10,000 IB claimants in England who were reassessed for ESA between 2010 and 2013, there were an additional six suicides, 2,700 cases of self-reported mental health problems, and an increase of more than 7,000 in the number of anti-depressants prescribed.

NHS Digital produced the results of its Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey (APMS), which showed that more than 43 per cent of claimants of employment and support allowance (ESA) had said (when asked in 2014) that they had attempted suicide at some point in their lives.

The Department of Health (DH) has refused to say why it failed to warn NHS bodies and other local services that claimants of out-of-work disability benefits are at a hugely-increased risk of attempting to take their own lives.

But the suicide prevention strategy fails to mention these figures or to highlight ESA claimants as a high-risk group.
