Indian Man Wakes on Funeral Pyre, Doctors Suspended for Premature Death Declaration

A key UN General Assembly committee has adopted a resolution to begin negotiations on the first-ever treaty to prevent and punish crimes against humanity, following Russia's withdrawal of amendments that could have stalled the process. The resolution, supported by 98 countries, sets a timeline for preparatory sessions in 2026 and 2027, with negotiations in 2028 and 2029. This initiative aims to address a gap in international law, as the International Criminal Court does not cover all countries. Human rights advocates hail this as a historic step towards reinforcing international justice.
