The context you added is critical. You need to add it to your search string. Without it, you will get something as far removed as my suggestion.
Fuad Yahya Aug 1, 2005:
I was not asking for context. I was trying to show you a way to find the exact term you need by googling your best guess. This is how we find expressions that must be rendered in a specific wording, regardless of how it is stated in the source text.

Mr. Fuad, I was seeking an exact term :( I'm sorry I had no context to provide :(
Fuad Yahya Aug 1, 2005:
Since none of the words in this "heading" is particularly difficult to guess, it would be better for you to google your best guess and find the exact wording online.
Non-ProZ.com Aug 1, 2005:
ok not a title, but heading :) my mistake :)
Non-ProZ.com Aug 1, 2005:
It's a testimony at court document. The title is a part of the heading:

Special Tribunal for Crimes Against Humanity

This is where context is crucial. People can't guess what you mean. I have only ever seen this term with Iraq mentioned somewhere before, after or interspersed in the above, so that's I'm going to have to safely assume that you mean.
This is the name of the court that is trying Saddam Hussein. It's also known in English as the "Iraqi Special Tribunal for Crimes Against Humanity" and the short form is the "Iraqi Special Tribunal".

Criminal Court with Jurisdiction over Crimes Against Humanity

What is this a title of? Is this a newspaper article, a book, or something else? These factors may affect the exact wording ("criminal court" versus "the criminal court," for instance).

neutral Hassan Al-Haifi (wordforword) : Sorry, but I found the link for the exact answer. I had originally agreed with your answer and then changed it. Apparently you did not see my original agreement before I found the exact correct answer.

YES .. as my colleague has said.
It is:

If it is concerned with Iraq, it shall be called:
Iraq Special Tribunal for Crimes Against Humanity.
If for Rawanda, it will be:
Rawanda Special Tribunal for Crimes Against Humanity.
and so on.

Since this is an official Iraqi document, it should be indicated that this is an Iraqi tribunal or court.
