I. INTRODUCTION
- On 27 January 2003, the Appeals Chamber rendered a decision on a joint motion
for access to all confidential material, transcripts and exhibits in the case
of Prosecutor v. Blaskic ("Decision I"), filed by the accused
Enver Hadzihasanovic , Mehmed Alagic, and Amir Kubura ("Applicants")
in the present appeal. The Applicants’ trial is yet to commence. Decision
I partly granted the joint motion filed by the Applicants, and ordered:
(a) the Prosecution to seek the consent of the providers
before disclosing to the Applicants the non-public material which falls
under Rule 70(C) as identified by the Prosecution and the Appellant Blaskic
in their confidential submissions filed before the Appeals Chamber;
(b) the Registry to grant the Applicants access to all
non-public documents, materials and exhibits from the Blaskic case
including non-public post-trial submissions , appellate briefs, and motions
pursuant to Rule 115 of the Rules, filed in the Blaskic appeal
until the date of the issuing of this decision, only if and when the consent
of the providers has been obtained by the Prosecution in accordance with
the directions under paragraph (a) above - with the exception of (1) the
"Appellant’s Third Motion to Admit Additional Evidence on Appeal
Pursuant to Rule 115" filed on 10 June 2002, (2) any submissions
related to the said motion, (3) the "Prosecution’s Rebuttal Evidence
and Arguments in Response to Additional Evidence Admitted on Appeal "
filed on 7 January 2003, and (4) any ex parte motions and decisions
which have been filed in the present appeal.
Decision I also indicated certain protective measures in respect of the non-public
materials to which the Applicants were to have access.
- On 21 February 2003, the Prosecution filed the "Prosecution’s Preliminary
Response and Motion for Clarification regarding Decision on Joint Motion of
Hadzihasanovic , Alagic and Kubura of 24 January 2003" ("Motion
for Clarification"). The Prosecution indicates that it has taken steps
to comply with Decision I but seeks clarification from the Appeals Chamber
on two issues which are concerned with Point (a) and Point (b) of the Disposition
of Decision I, cited above. Further, the Prosecution asks for guidance from
the Appeals Chamber regarding the appropriate procedure governing the increasing
number of access motions being filed "before this Tribunal".1
- On 21 March 2003, the Applicants jointly filed a response ("Response").
On 26 March 2003, the Prosecution filed its reply ("Reply").
- By its order of 21 March 2003, the relevant Trial Chamber terminated the
proceedings against the accused Mehmed Alagic, having been notified of his
death on 7 March 2003.
II. WHETHER THE MOTION FOR CLARIFICATION IS ADMISSIBLE
- The Applicants submit that the Motion for Clarification was filed almost
a month after Decision I,2 and that they have
been in contact with the Registry to make necessary arrangements to ensure
that the non-public materials can be obtained as expeditiously as possible
for the purposes of preparing for trial.3 They
argue that "it is not an accepted practice for a party to respond
to a decision of a Chamber", and that Decision I "is clear and
falls to be implemented ".4 They add that
the Prosecution has no basis under the Statute, the Rules of Procedure and
Evidence ("Rules"), and Practice Directions of the International
Tribunal, or Decision I itself, to respond to Decision I,5
and that the Motion for Clarification will only cause delays.6
They submit that the points for clarification "are either clear from
the Appeals Chamber’s Decision, or can be resolved amongst the parties without
further involving the Chamber at this stage".7
They also point out that the Motion for Clarification was filed out of time,
because any submission seeking to reverse or to reconsider Decision I "with
a view to obtaining different orders, must be filed pursuant to the rules
normally governing appeals against decisions, other than preliminary motions
for judgements, namely Rule 73 ".8 The Prosecution
replies that Decision I did not set deadlines for the Prosecution to comply
with that decision, and that it has taken steps to comply with the decision.9
It argues that it is not attempting to delay access, but seeks clarification
as to fundamental guarantees of protection and confidentiality given to witnesses
and other entities which have participated or co-operated in proceedings before
this Tribunal.10 It points out that the Applicants
have had access to voluminous, public materials from the Blaskic case,
and that their trial date "is still many months away".11
The Prosecution argues that "without clarifications of the issues raised,
compliance is somewhat difficult or problematic", and that "to the
extent feasible the Prosecution has complied with the Appeals Chamber decision".12
- With regard to the Motion for Clarification, the Appeals Chamber considers
that, if the terms of Decision I were in need of clarification, as argued
by the Prosecution, a decision of clarification would be in the interests
of both parties to the case. As to the Applicants’ concern with delays in
the proceedings against them, it is noted that Decision I does not set any
time limit within which disclosure is to be completed. The Prosecution has
also taken steps to disclose materials in accordance with Decision I, and
there is no proof that, by seeking clarification , the Prosecution is attempting
to delay the proceedings. Moreover, it is not appropriate to see the Motion
for Clarification as a filing under Rule 73. The procedure of interlocutory
appeal does not extend to a decision by the Appeals Chamber, because there
is no resort to appeal therefrom under either the Statute or Rules. The Motion
for Clarification is therefore admissible before the Appeals Chamber insofar
as it is seeking clarification from the Appeals Chamber. The test which the
Appeals Chamber will apply in its consideration of the motion is whether a
point raised for clarification is indeed vague in the light of the terms of
Decision I. If it is, clarification will be provided.
- The Appeals Chamber also observes that in some of the submissions made in
the Motion for Clarification, reconsideration of Decision I is what is actually
sought by the Prosecution. In this regard, the Appeals Chamber recalls that
a Chamber "may reconsider a decision, and not only when there has been
a change of circumstances , where the Chamber has been persuaded that its
previous decision was erroneous and has caused prejudice."13
It further emphasizes that "whether or not a Chamber does reconsider
its decision is itself a discretionary decision".14
With these principles in mind, the Appeals Chamber turns to the submissions
of the parties .
III. POINT (A) OF THE DISPOSITION OF DECISION I
A. Whether Point (a) includes pre-trial, trial, and post-trial
confidential material
- The Prosecution indicates that its understanding is (1) that the Applicants
are seeking access to confidential materials (transcripts and exhibits) in
the entire Blaskic case, including the appeal; and (2) that Decision
I grants access to confidential materials in the entire Blaskic case,
including the appeal .15 It asks the Appeals
Chamber to clarify for both parties and the Registry that the obligations
set out in Point (a) of the Disposition of Decision I cover pre-trial, trial,
and post-trial confidential material. The Applicants respond that Decision
I is clear on this point, and that they are entitled to obtain access to all
non-public materials, including pre-appeal pleadings and decisions, from the
Registry.16
- Decision I uses the expression "non-public material which falls under
Rule 70 (C)" in Point (a) of the Disposition. Rule 70 (C) of the Rules
provides:
If, after obtaining the consent of the person or entity
providing information under this Rule, the Prosecutor elects to present
as evidence any testimony, document or other material so provided, the
Trial Chamber, notwithstanding Rule 98, may not order either party
to produce additional evidence received from the person or entity providing
the initial information, nor may the Trial Chamber for the purpose of
obtaining such additional evidence itself summon that person or a representative
of that entity as a witness or order their attendance. A Trial Chamber
may not use its power to order the attendance of witnesses or to require
production of documents in order to compel the production of such additional
evidence.
By its title, Decision I deals with a motion of the Applicants "for
access to all confidential material, transcripts and exhibits" in the
Blaskic case. This expression is repeated in Point (b) of the Disposition.
The context in which the non-public material is referred to in Decision I
is clear as to what constitutes the material. The Appeals Chamber considers
that there is no indication in Rule 70 that the rule applies only to the pre-appeal
stage in a case. By its nature, the material envisaged in Rule 70 (C), and
therefore necessarily in Rule 70, may arise at the pre-trial, trial, or appeal
stage. The Appeals Chamber considers, therefore, that the expression of "non-public
material which falls under Rule 70 (C)" applies to material falling under
Rule 70 and introduced into the proceedings at all stages of the case, including
the appeal.
B. Rule 70 (C) material produced on behalf of the Appellant
Tihomir Blaskic
- The Prosecution submits that, while it is in a position to contact the providers
of Rule 70 (C) material used in the Prosecution’s case, "it is not in
a position to do so on behalf of the Appellant Tihomir Blaskic".17
The Applicants respond that "the point is self-evident".18
The Prosecution replies that clarification is necessary, because Decision
I "does not address the question of Rule 70 material used in the Blaskic
Defence case".19
- It appears that the parties are in agreement that consent for disclosing
Rule 70 material in the possession of the Appellant Blaskic has to be sought
by the counsel for the Appellant. The Appeals Chamber notes that Rule 70 is
not limited to relevant information in the possession of the Prosecution.
Rule 70 (F) states clearly that :
The Trial Chamber may order upon an application by the
accused or defence counsel that, in the interests of justice, the provisions
of this Rule shall apply mutatis mutandis to specific information
in the possession of the accused.20
- If, in the Blaskic case, there exists material in the possession
of the Appellant Blaskic which falls under Rule 70, Point (a) of the Disposition
of Decision I shall apply to the Appellant Blaskic (through his counsel).
C. The role of the Registry in relation to Point (a) of the
Disposition
- The Prosecution submits that, while the parties will identify Rule 70 (C)
material in their cases, "it is the Registry who should ‘disclose’ the
Blaskic trial and appeal record to the Applicants, not the Prosecution".21
It adds that "it is desirable for all material to which the Applicants
are entitled to be provided by one source in order to avoid confusion and
unintended violations of protective measures of redactions that may be ordered".22
It recognises that the language of Point (b) of the Disposition of Decision
I is clear, but that of Point (a) of the Disposition is not.23
The Applicants respond that the point that the Registry must provide Rule
70 material once the parties have obtained the necessary consent "has
never been disputed by any party", and that they have already contacted
the Registry to obtain access to all non-public materials.24
- The disclosure of "all non-public documents, materials, and exhibits
from the Blaskic case" is to be implemented by the Registry in
accordance with Point (b) of the Disposition.25
Under Rule 70, the consent to disclosure of providers of Rule 70 material
is to be obtained by the parties. The disclosure of the material after consent
is given can be conducted by either party if it possesses the material, or
the Registry at the request of a party and after the party has indicated to
it that the providers of the material have consented to its disclosure in
another case before the International Tribunal . The choice between these
two methods of disclosure can be made by the relevant party subject to the
provisions of Rule 70. But, in the present case, the terms of Point (b) of
the Disposition make the choice unnecessary: it is for the parties to seek
the consent from providers of Rule 70 material, but access to the material
after consent is obtained is to be sought through the Registry.
IV. CLARIFICATION SOUGHT IN RELATION TO POINT(B) OF THE DISPOSITION
A. Whether inter partes pleadings and Trial Chamber
decisions prior to appeal are covered
- The Prosecution submits that the Appellants’ motion for access filed previously
in this case "only refers to witness transcripts and exhibits,
as reflected in the title of the Applicants’ Motion", and that "their
request for access does not expressly identify pre-trial or trial filings
as part of the material for which access is requested".26
It adds that , if Decision I were to be deemed to include all confidential
pleadings and Trial Chamber decisions, "the Prosecution will need additional
time to review the confidential pleadings and decisions prior to the appeals
proceedings".27 The Applicants respond that
Decision I is clear in this respect, that the Prosecution has no basis to
inform the Appeals Chamber that it is proceeding on the understanding that
only transcripts and exhibits prior to the appeal will be disclosed, and that
they are entitled to obtain access to all non-public materials, including
pre-appeal pleadings and decisions from the Registry.28
However, they recognise that certain materials have been excluded from disclosure
by Decision I, including ex parte pleadings and decisions.29
The Prosecution replies that the Applicants did not respond to its arguments
and that clarification is necessary in this regard.30
- Point (b) of the Disposition of Decision I states that the Registry shall
grant the Applicants access to all non-public "documents, materials and
exhibits" including , among others, appellate briefs and motions for
additional evidence, subject to exceptions. The decision is not confined to
transcripts and exhibits filed at the pre-appeal stage. The Applicants’ original
motion, which was the subject of Decision I, may have included in its title
the expression, "all confidential material—transcripts and exhibits",
but the relief sought in that motion was more explicit, in that the Applicants
requested:
1. An order to the Registrar to disclosure of all confidential
material in the Prosecutor v. Blaskic obtained until the day of
this Motion to the defence counsel in Hadzihasanovic and others case,
and access to and usage of all non-public documents , materials and exhibits
under the same conditions applied to the defence counsel in that case,
as well (as) all other exhibits tendered during the procedure against
general Blaskic.
2. An order to the Registrar to forward to the defence
counsel in the Hadzihasanovic and others case all public and confidential
transcripts and exhibits from the Prosecutor v. Blaskic.
3. An order to (the) Registrar to continue providing
the defence counsel in the Hadzihasanovic and others case all materials
described in 1 and 2 until the completion of the appeals phase in the
case of the Prosecutor v. Blaskic.31
The relief sought leaves no doubt that the Applicants seek more than just
the material from the pre-trial and trial stages. Decision I has dealt with
all three forms of relief sought by the Applicants. Even the Prosecution saw
that earlier motion as one that dealt with "all confidential material,
transcripts and exhibits".32
- It is not clear why the Prosecution will need more time to review pre-appeal
motions or decisions if access to them is granted to the Applicants. Those
documents , filed inter partes in the Blaskic case and with
the Registry, will be disclosed by the Registry to the Applicants pursuant
to Point (b) of the Disposition of Decision I and as part of the record on
appeal (which includes the trial record).33 That
process of providing access will be subjected to certain protective measures
indicated in Decision I, in addition to existing protective measures indicated
by the Trial Chamber. Further, Decision I was rendered by the Appeals Chamber
following the referral by the President of the International Tribunal of the
Applicants’ motion to the Appeals Chamber pursuant to Rule 75 (D) as amended
on 28 December 2001.34 This is not, therefore,
a case where disclosure is sought from the Prosecution. This part of the argument
by the Prosecution is rejected.
B. Whether ex parte filings and Trial Chamber decisions
prior to the appellate proceedings are covered by Decision I
- The Prosecution notes that Point (b) of the Disposition of Decision I denies
the Appellants access to "any ex parte motions and decisions which
have been filed in the present appeal", and it submits that this denial
of access should be applied to similar filings from the pre-appeal stage.35
It intends to proceed in this case on that basis.36
Otherwise, it needs additional time to review such filings to determine whether
there is a need to apply for any additional protective measures in relation
to the filings.37 There is no particular response
from Applicants, except that Point (b) of the Disposition is clear.38
- The Appeals Chamber considers that the terms of Point (b) of the Disposition
are clear in this regard, and that no clarification is necessary. Further,
Point (b) relates only to the action of the Registry in granting the Applicants
access to materials expressly defined in Decision I. The Prosecution is not
ordered to provide the access requested by the Applicants. Consequently, as
to the additional time requested by the Prosecution to review ex parte
filings from the pre -appeal stage, the Appeals Chamber rejects that request.
C. Additional protective measures for witnesses
- The Prosecution submits that
in case parties are granted access to confidential witness
transcripts (a) that the witnesses should be contacted to ascertain whether
they have additional security concerns justifying additional protective
measures and (b) that any reference in the transcripts to the witnesses’
identity which would reveal that these witnesses have testified before
the Tribunal, should be redacted.39
The Prosecution makes this submission because "there is a danger of
inconsistency of treatment of confidential witnesses as a result of recent
decisions on access ",40 with particular
reference to an order regarding access which was rendered by the Appeals Chamber
in the Kordic and Cerkez appeal ("Ljubicic Order").41
The Prosecution then submits that the same regime of protection as indicated
in the Ljubicic Order should be applied in relation to the Applicants’ motion
for access to the confidential material in the Blaskic case.42
- In more detailed terms, the Prosecution submits that the witnesses who have
testified confidentially in the Blaskic trial, as well as any government
or other entity which may have consented to giving confidential testimony,
should be contacted by the Victims and Witnesses Section of the International
Tribunal ("VWS") to ascertain their views on the provision of access
to these materials to the Applicants.43 Further,
it submits that, for those witnesses from whom consent is obtained, the Applicants
should be granted access to the relevant materials only when the Registry
has redacted them to remove any reference to the witnesses’ identity that
would reveal that the witnesses testified before this Tribunal.44
The Prosecution also submits that the VWS is most appropriately placed to
contact the Defence, Prosecution, and Court witnesses.45
The Prosecution further suggests that the responsibility for redacting the
relevant materials rests with the Registry, and that removing any reference
to the identity of the witnesses does not require any particular knowledge
or familiarity with the proceedings.46 The Prosecution
adds that, in respect of witnesses who refuse to give consent for disclosure
of their transcripts in any form, the Prosecution suggests that the VWS should
contact the witnesses to inform them of the Appeals Chamber’s decision in
this regard, and that their transcripts "should then be redacted to remove
any reference to their identity (where necessary) prior to being made available
to the Applicant", who will have to provide cogent reasons as to why
disclosure of the transcripts in unredacted form is warranted.47
- The Prosecution then submits that, were the Appeals Chamber to decide that,
as a general principle, the material should be made available to the Applicants
in unredacted form from the outset, the Prosecution would need more time to
review all of the Prosecution witnesses’ testimony and exhibits in order to
determine whether additional protective measures are necessary.48
If the Applicants apply for a variation of the protective measures governing
these access matters, seek the removal of redactions or request permission
to contact witnesses, the Prosecution asks to be notified of this application
and to be given an opportunity to respond.49
- The Applicants respond that seeking consent of confidential witnesses, consideration
of additional protective measures, and redaction of identifying features,
"are new proposals that were not put forward by the Prosecution before
the Appeals Chamber rendered its Decision".50
They note that the Prosecution has not identified any witness for additional
protective measures in the Motion for Clarification.51
They argue that the Ljubicic Order only concerns access to materials in respect
of the accused Ljubicic.52 They also consider
that whether the Registry is best placed to undertake redactions or whether
the VWS should be asked to contact witnesses are issues that go beyond the
scope of the present proceedings, and that such "internal procedures
and practicalities must be organised and streamlined as between the organs
of the ICTY concerned, and the parties."53
- The Prosecution replies that it agrees that its proposals are new, as they
were "never addressed by the parties at any time prior to" the Motion
for Clarification .54 It concedes that previous
filings "were solely concerned with the Applicants’ entitlement to access
and the appropriate scope of that access", and that "questions of
witness protection were not canvassed ".55
It also argues that, at this juncture, it is highly desirable for the Appeals
Chamber to introduce some consistency of approach in access cases generally,
which should not vary from accused to accused .56
- The Appeals Chamber considers, and the parties have agreed, that the submissions
of the Prosecution have gone beyond a request for clarification. Clarification
is directed at the terms of Decision I if they are vague or confusing. Suggestions
that are not covered by the decision because the parties did not plead them
before the decision was made should have been the subject of a separate motion.
- The Appeals Chamber considers that the ultimate concern behind a more elaborate
regime of access, as illustrated by the Ljubicic Order, is the same as the
one that underpins the Disposition of Decision I: namely, to strike a reasonable
balance between the rights of the accused (or appellant) and the protection
of witnesses and victims. That concern can be addressed through protection
of different degrees , but the measures employed to achieve such protection
do not have to be identical . In the present case, the measures of protection
indicated in Decision I are in addition to existing protective measures indicated
by the Trial Chamber in the light of the circumstances of the Blaskic case.
In the view of the Appeals Chamber , this combination of protective measures,
currently in force in the Blaskic appeal, is sufficient to protect
confidential witnesses from having their identity revealed to the public or
third parties as defined by Decision I. In any event, the combination of protective
measures indicated so far remains in place and effect until varied by the
Appeals Chamber at the request of the parties. As the Prosecution realises,57
it is not likely that the refusal of confidential witnesses to give consent
to have their testimony disclosed to the Applicants can prevent such testimony
from being disclosed at the expense of the rights of the accused. This is
because the testimony once given in court becomes part of the trial record,
thus part of the record of the Tribunal. The use of such record in other proceedings
before the Tribunal, or its possible use , if any, outside of the Tribunal,
is subject to, and only subject to, existing protective measures indicated
by the Chambers pursuant to the Rules and having considered the legitimate
concerns of the witnesses prior to their testimony. Those existing protective
measures, however, can be varied under Rule 75 to safeguard the rights of
the accused before the International Tribunal.
- The suggestions of the Prosecution that go beyond the scope of Point (b)
of the Disposition of Decision I are rejected.
V. PROPOSED PROCEDURE FOR DEALING WITH ACCESS MOTIONS GENERALLY
- The submissions of the Prosecution under this ground are an expansion of
those it makes in the previous ground, section C. The Prosecution submits
that the procedure it suggests might assist in the formulation of a common
procedure for all access cases in order to foster consistency and to avoid
the confusion that might result in unintentional disclosure of material without
adequate protective measures. The Applicants respond that the new procedure
would require "numerous decisions to be set aside and substantially revised".58
They add that Decision I is clear and through the Registry, is in the process
of being implemented.59 They ask the Appeals
Chamber to dismiss the Motion for Clarification.
- In respect of the proposal of the Prosecution, the Appeals Chamber considers
that it may not be appropriate for it to promulgate a practice that is applicable
in all cases. The endorsement by the Appeals Chamber of a practice in one
appeal is always given in the light of the circumstances of the appeal. Therefore,
the Appeals Chamber declines to consider the proposal of the Prosecution any
further .
VI. CONCLUSION
- For the foregoing reasons, the Motion for Clarification is granted to the
extent that clarification is necessary for the implementation of Decision
I.
Done in both English and French, the English text being authoritative.
