Two years after the group calling itself the ‘Islamic state’ (ISIS) seized control of parts of Iraq and Syria, the UN Commission of Inquiry on Syria has published a report finding that the group has committed massive international crimes involving mass killing, gang rape and torture. At a time when members of the group may be returning to their countries of origin, what routes are there to ensure criminal accountability for these crimes. Are there any helpful practices from previous conflicts?
