The Hague, 29 March – The Mechanism’s President today issued a decision on the “Urgent Request to the President of the MICT to Grant Florence Hartmann Early Release”, which was dated 25 March 2016 and transmitted to the Mechanism’s President on 29 March 2016.
Ms. Hartmann was granted early release, with the decision effective as soon as practically possible. In determining that Ms. Hartmann should be granted early release, the President considered that her exemplary conduct in the United Nations Detention Unit and her completion of more than two thirds of her sentence militated in favour of her release.
President Judge Theodor Meron also consulted the majority of the Judges of the sentencing Chamber who are Judges of the Mechanism, pursuant to the Mechanism’s Rules of Procedure and Evidence.
