6.3 Armed Conflicts

The special situation's deepest law: the international humanitarian law (IHL) application — the two regimes (the international conflicts' Geneva Conventions-and-Protocol I; the non- international conflicts' Common Article 3-and-Protocol II); the lex specialis question (the human rights law's continuation in conflict, read through IHL's standards — the ICJ's advisory doctrine); the Nepal conflict's (1996–2006) record: the violations from both sides (the disappearances, the torture, the extrajudicial killings — the documented ledger); the transitional justicemachinery: the TRC and the Enforced Disappearances Commission (the Commission on Investigation of Disputed Persons... the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Act 2071's world), the Supreme Court's rulings (the 2015 decision's international-standards requirement; the 2024 decision ordering the Act's amendment — the conflict-era cases' amnesty bar: the gross-violations' prosecution duty); the ratification agenda's link (the CED of U3.2.2.8); the IHL's teaching in the Nepali curriculum (the International Humanitarian Law elective's cross-reference — LAW5509, this semester).
