(詳細はCombatant Status Review Tribunal (fact sheet of October 17, 2006)を参照) Military Police: Enemy Prisoners of War, Retained Personnel, Civilian Internees and Other Detainees is the full title of a United States Army regulation usually referred to as AR 190-8, that lays out how the United States Army should treat captives.〔 〕 This document is notable as the United States Supreme Court advised the Department of Defense, in its ruling on ''Hamdi v. Rumsfeld'' in 2004, that the Tribunals the DoD convened to review the status of the Guantanamo captives should be modeled after the Tribunals described in AR-190-8. ==The authority of AR 190-8 Tribunals== As a signatory to the Geneva Conventions, the United States is obliged to convene a "competent tribunal" to determine the status of any captive "should any doubt arise" as to their proper status.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Human Rights First Analyzes DOD's Combatant Status Review Tribunals )〕 The Third Geneva Convention states that all captives must be accorded the protections of POW status until a competent tribunal convenes, and determines the captive does not qualify for such status.〔 *AR-190-8 Tribunals are authorized to confirm that a captive is a lawful combatant, after all, who should continue to be detained as a prisoner of war until hostilities cease. *AR-190-8 Tribunals are authorized to determine that a captive is an innocent civilian, who should be immediately released. *AR-190-8 Tribunals are authorized to confirm that a captive is a combatant who acted in a way that he or she should be stripped of POW status. According to the Geneva Conventions, only captives who have been stripped of POW status, by a competent tribunal, can face charges for war crimes they committed in situation of armed conflict. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Military Police: Enemy Prisoners of War, Retained Personnel, Civilian Internees and Other Detainees」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
