Question: Humanitarian protections in war are denied to certain combatants under what treaty?

<P0-S0>  An unprivileged combatant is a person, such as a mercenary, who takes a direct part in the hostilities but who upon capture does not qualify for prisoner-of-war status. <P0-S1> A combatant is a person who takes a direct part in the hostilities of an armed conflict. <P0-S2>  If a combatant follows the law of war, then he or she is considered a privileged combatant and upon capture, he or she will qualify as a prisoner of war under the Third Geneva Convention (GCIII). <SEP> <P1-S0> Hors de combat, literally meaning "outside the fight", is a French term used in diplomacy and international law to refer to persons who are incapable of performing their ability to wage war. <P1-S1>  Examples include fighter pilots or aircrews parachuting from their disabled aircraft, as well as the sick, wounded, detained, or otherwise disabled. <P1-S2>  Persons "hors de combat" are normally granted special protections according to the laws of war, sometimes including prisoner-of-war status, and therefore officially become non-combatants. Under the 1949 Geneva Conventions, unlawful combatants "hors de combat" are granted the same privilege and to be treated with humanity while in captivity but unlike lawful combatants, they are subject to trial and punishment, which includes capital punishment. <SEP> <P2-S0> The Third Geneva Convention, relative to the treatment of prisoners of war, is one of the four treaties of the Geneva Conventions. <P2-S1>  The Geneva Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War was first adopted in 1929, but significantly revised at the 1949 conference. <P2-S2>  It defines humanitarian protections for prisoners of war. <P2-S3>  There are 196 state parties to the Convention. <SEP> <P3-S0> The Treaty Three Police Service (T3PS) in Ontario began as the Treaty #3 Policing Initiative in August 1999 as directed by the Executive Council of Grand Council of Treaty 3. <P3-S1>  It officially began operation on August 5, 2003, and became Canada’s newest First Nation self-administered police service. <P3-S2>  Members of Treaty Three Police are appointed as First Nations Constables by the Commissioner of the OPP pursuant to s.54 of the Police Services Act. <P3-S3>  They have the powers of a police officer for the purpose of carrying out duties specified in their appointments and under federal law have the powers and protections of peace officers. <P3-S4>  Because First Nations Constables are not police officers as defined by the Police Services Act, their status in law is different but equal to that of a police officer. <P3-S5>  The jurisdiction of the Treaty Three Police Service includes all signatory Treaty Three First Nations (The Paypom Treaty) previously policed by the OPP administered First Nations Policing Program. <P3-S6>  The OPP are mandated to provide policing on a reserve, village or any other area not currently under a policing agreement. <P3-S7>  All operations save major crimes are investigated by Treaty Three First Nations Constable patrol officers and/or the T3PS Crime Unit. <P3-S8>  The Service exists with the unanimous agreement of the signatory Band Councils or Band Chiefs. <P3-S9>  Unlike police forces in cities and towns, the Treaty Three Police Service is not required to provide all the regular services of a police force but does provide virtually everything needed (or requests additional OPP resources, e.g. K9 Unit).
