Argentina: Bill Seeks to Classify Offenses as Crimes Against Humanity

Former Argentina Supreme Court justice Eugenio Raul Zaffaroni and crusading Spanish judge Baltasar Garzon are preparing a bill to classify corporate and environmental felonies as crimes against humanity. Behind the measure is the idea that undermining a country's economy or fomenting global warming can result in suffering and death. Argentine human rights organizations and some members of the judiciary are supporting the bill, although some legal specialists remain skeptical. Laureano Ponce reports from Buenos Aires. teleSUR
