- Parte Segunda. La Competencia de la Corte Penal Internacional
La competencia funcional durante el procedimiento
Author | Nicolás Cabezudo Rodríguez |
La articulación del procedimiento en cuatro fase o períodos bien diferenciados: preliminar o instructorio, de juicio oral o enjuiciamiento, de impugnación y de ejecución, permite discriminar, con arreglo a la estructura ya abordada de la Corte y dentro de las distintas Secciones que la componen, el órgano funcionalmente competente para conocer de cada una de ellos. No merece mayores comentarios la competencia funcional que se deposita en la Sala de Apelaciones para conocer de los recursos de apelación interpuestos contra las sentencias definitivas y las resoluciones interlocutorias emanadas de cualquiera de las Salas, así como del juicio de revisión, y que asume durante la fase de impugnación > (art. 83.1); y la competencia funcional de la Presidencia que, como resulta del Proyecto de la Comisión Preparatoria, ejercerá en la fase de ejecución las funciones que corresponde desempeñar al Tribunal (regla 199).

En este orden de ideas, cumplirá una triple función:
-
Como órgano encargado de la salvaguarda de los derechos de los imputados, en especial de su derecho de defensa, entre otras tareas, podrá:
• previo examen de la solicitud que a estos efectos hiciera el Fiscal, dictar una orden de detención o de comparencia contra una persona determinanda, fijando las condiciones en que ésta se practicará (art. 58);
• también a instancia del Fiscal, autorizar al Abogado defensor designado por el imputado, detenido o comparecido, a que participe en el procedimiento, nombrándole uno si aquél no lo hubiera hecho ya [art. 56.2.d)];
• dictar, a petición del imputado, las providencias y órdenes necesarias a los fines de la investigación para preparar su defensa, incluida la solicitud de cooperación a los Estados Partes [art. 57.3.b)]14; y
• adoptar las medidas precisas para la protección de las...
