An intergovernmental organization and international tribunal that is situated in The Hague, Netherlands is commonly known as ICC or ICCt which is The International Criminal Court. Jurisdiction has been given to the ICC for the prosecution of individuals for international crimes around the globe of war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide, and crimes of aggression. When national courts are unwilling or at times unable to prosecute culprits or say when the UN Security Council along with the individual states refer situations to the Court it is intended to complement existing national judicial systems, a judgement cannot be passed but it may exercise its jurisdiction if certain conditions are met accordingly.

1 July 2002 ICC began its functioning. The Rome Statute is a multilateral treaty that serves as the ICC's foundational and governing document.

The states and civil society have criticized the ICC and created a lot of problems which include objections about its accusations of bias, jurisdiction, questioning of the fairness of its case-selection and trial procedures, and doubts about its effectiveness.

 The Organs of the Court play a very crucial role in the processes. The members of the Organs include:

1. The Presidencycouncil
2. Judicial Divisions
3. Office of the Prosecutor
4. Policy Paper
5. Environmental crimes
6. Registry

The President is the most senior judge chosen by the peers in the Judicial Division, and the only person in the judiciary who hears cases before the Court. The Office of the Prosecutor is headed by the Prosecutor who investigates crimes and initiates proceedings before the Judicial Division. The Registry is headed by the Registrar and is charged with managing all the administrative functions of the ICC, including the headquarters, detention unit, and public defense office.

ICC is more likely to ensure that the horrendous international crimes, such as war crimes, genocide, crimes against humanity and aggression mustn’t go unpunished and the potential perpetrators will be dissuaded.
