Edited sentence: Courts such as these have a poor record in ensuring that those guilty of serious crimes are brought to justice.Indeed, effective enforcement may rely on action by the United States, as has been the case with previous international courts.The Bosnian Serb indictees Radovan Karadžić and Ratko Mladić have been able to evade justice for many years, and it was political pressure, rather than legal institutions, that led to the trials of Slobodan Milošević and Saddam Hussein.The court is not an effective deterrent to future Pol Pots because it does not have strong enough enforcement mechanisms
