We
acknowledge
that
in
1953
,
when
the
partisan
brothers
,
J.A.
and
A.A.
,
were
killed
,
there
was
no
jurisprudence
on
the
meaning
of
the
phrase
“
in
part
”
,
as
used
in
Article
II
of
the
Genocide
Convention
(
see
paragraphs
91
-
92
)
.
That
,
however
,
is
understandable
,
given
that
the
first
case
in
which
a
conviction
for
the
crime
of
genocide
was
pronounced
did
not
occur
until
1998
(
see
Prosecutor
v.
Jean
-
Paul
Akayesu
(
(
Judgment
)
,
ICTR-96
-
4
-
T
,
2
September
1998
)
.
The
fact
that
judicial
interpretation
of
the
Genocide
Convention
took
time
to
develop
can
not
in
itself
mean
that
genocide
did
not
occur
prior
to
such
interpretation
.
