UN calls for Nuremberg-style trials for ISIS members
The head of a UN team investigating ISIS crimes wants trials like those held at Nuremberg
The UN lawyer investigating war crimes in Iraq, Karim Khan, tells Newshour that members of Islamic State should face the same justice as Nazi leaders did at Nuremberg. We get reaction from the last surviving prosecutor at the Nuremberg trials.
Also in the programme: A census of tigers in India shows rapid population growth, and we ask a senior member of Hong Kong's administration what it would take to ask China to send in troops to end the unrest.
