This may also apply to the responsibility of the superior in case his subordinates commit a criminal act, and if the superior culpably fails to take necessary measures to prevent or suppress such acts. In such situations, in addition to the criminal responsibility of the actual perpetrator, the responsibility of the superior arises as well. The international community in trying war crimes and crimes against humanity after World War II upheld the doctrine. It was intended as a means to demand accountability from military and non-military sup eriors, for the crimes perpetrated by their subordinates because they, as superiors, failed to prevent or control their subordinates. - Reproduced.  aCriminal law - India  aCriminal law  aIndian Journal of Public Administration  aN  a105220  c105215d105215  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 60, Issue no: 2pAR105680r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
