00:00Reparations are an integral part of the International Criminal Court's process
00:04or the damage done to the victims if the accused is proven guilty.
00:13According to the video explainer of the ICC,
00:15monetary compensation, rehabilitation or medical support are included.
00:21Victims can receive this as an individual or as a group.
00:26While the litigation is ongoing, the ICC will freeze the assets of the accused.
00:32If the accused's wealth is not enough for the reparation,
00:36the ICC can raise funds to help damage the victims.
00:45In many cases, the impact of the crime can be immense
00:49and the guilty person doesn't have enough financial resources
00:52to compensate for the potentially large number of victims.
00:56This is why states have also created a Trust Fund for Victims,
01:01financed by voluntary contributions,
01:04to assist in executing the reparations ordered by the judges.
