Southern Africa Litigation Centre v National Director of Public Prosecutions

Southern Africa Litigation Centre & Another v National Director of Public Prosecutions & Others is a South African case, heard by the North Gauteng High Court in 2012.〔(Full Judgment from SAFLII )〕
==Background==
In March 2007 Zimbabwe police raided Harvest House, the headquarters of the political opposition the Movement for Democratic Change, and detained and tortured scores of people. After hearing about this incident Johannesburg-based NGO the Southern Africa Litigation Centre (SALC) documented the torture and set out the legal landscape in a detailed dossier which was submitted to the Priority Crimes Litigation Unit in the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA). The document maintained that because the evidence supported the conclusion that the torture was widespread and systematic it should be regarded as a crime against humanity. SALC requested that the South African prosecuting and police services initiate an investigation into the torture, and argued that South Africa’s domestic and international obligations in respect of international crimes compelled the authorities to do so.
The South African Implementation of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court Act (the ICC Act)〔(Text of the ICC Act )〕 had been enacted to give effect to the country's obligations as a signatory to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, and so to enable South African courts to try perpetrators of international crimes as set out in the Rome Statute. The ICC Act empowers South Africa authorities to investigate and prosecute persons accused of committing crimes against humanity, genocide and war crimes if the perpetrator is present in South Africa, even if the perpetrator is not South African and the crimes were not committed on South African territory. The SALC dossier stated that the Zimbabwean officials suspected of committing the torture regularly travelled to South Africa and so the country had jurisdiction under the ICC Act to investigate them.
In June 2009 the NPA informed SALC that the South African authorities – the NPA and the South African Police Service (SAPS) – had taken the decision not to investigate the allegations contained in the dossier.
