The Defence observes that the Secretary-General recognised the overriding importance of the principle of legality in its report setting out the proposed text of the Statute of the Special Court for Sierra Leone. 6 In terms of the proposed offence of recruitment of child soldiers, the Secretary-General observed that “it is far less clear whether it is customarily recognised as a war crime entailing the individual responsibility of the accused”. 7 The Secretary-General therefore eschewed a more administrative definition of “putting ones name on a list and formal entry into the armed forces” in favour of defining the contours of the offence in a manner which accorded to conduct which was clearly criminalised in Sierra Leone – i.e. abduction, forced recruitment, and (not or) transformation of the child into a child.
