In light of the HISTORIC (!) start of MOST COMPLEX (sic!) trial hearings beginning on 27 June 2011 and again ANOTHER HISTORIC (!) START of this same MOST COMPLEX (sic!) on 21 Nov. 2011 of Case 002 against the surviving Khmer Rouge senior leaders Nuon Chea, Khieu Samphan, Ieng Sary and Ieng Thirith, KI Media is posting installations of the public document of the Closing Order of Case 002 (or, Indictment). The Closing Order of the Co-Investigating Judges forms the basic document from which all the parties (co-prosecutors, lead co-lawyers for all civil parties, defense lawyers) make their arguments before the Trial Chamber judges (one Cambodian President, 2 Cambodian Judges, 2 UN judges). Up until now, the hearings involving these four surviving senior Khmer Rouge leaders have been in the Pre-Trial Chamber over issues of pre-trial detention and jurisdictional issues. Beginning in June November 2011, the Trial Chamber is hearing the substantive (sic!) arguments over the criminal charges (genocide against Buddhists, genocide against Vietnamese, genocide against Cham Muslims, crimes against humanity at the 200 prisons, mass crimes in countless killing fields, Eastern Zone purges, penal code of 1956, etc.) of only the Phase I Movement in April 1975.

PART THREE: LEGAL FINDINGS
II. LEGAL FINDINGS ON MODES OF RESPONSIBILITY
A. JOINT CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE
1515. Criminal responsibility under JCE need not involve the direct commission of a crime, but it may take the form of assistance in, or contribution to, the execution of the common purpose, or aspects of it, resulting in and/or involving the commission of crimes. The contribution need not be necessary or substantial, but at least should be a significant contribution to the commission of crimes on the ground for which the Charged Persons are held responsible.5289
1516. JCE responsibility is a doctrine that applies to a purpose which is aimed at imposing a nationwide government organised system of cruelty and injustice as long as all the elements are established to the evidentiary standard as set out in the section of this Closing Order on "Standard of Evidence".5290
