U.N. human rights chief: Syria should be referred to ICC Top story: U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay told the U.N. Security Council that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's crackdown against domestic protesters "constituted crimes against humanity," and that Syria should be referred to the International Criminal Court. Pillay also revised the U.N. estimate for the death toll during the nine-month-old uprising, saying that more than 5,000 people had been killed, including 300 children. Another 14,000 people are believed to have been arrested, while 12,400 people had fled to other countries, she said. Pillay urged the U.N. Security Council to take "urgent, effective measures" to protect Syrian civilians, warning that failure to act would only embolden Syrian authorities to continue the crackdown. The Security Council has yet to pass a resolution on the Syria crisis, due to objections from Russia and China. Syrian Ambassador to the United Nations Bashar Jaafari criticized Pillay's presentation as "not objective," saying that she had "allowed herself to be misused" by anti-Assad defectors.
