The Roskilde Court has ruled that Denmark’s 1955 genocide law cannot be used to prosecute foreigners on charges of genocide committed abroad, in the first ruling by a Danish court on whether Danish courts have jurisdiction in such cases.
“The court finds no basis on which to assume that there is a legal basis in Denmark to prosecute foreigners charged with having committed genocide in another country,” the judge has ruled.
