The Prosecution sought to establish through cross-examination both the chain of command within the Sierra Leonean Army and a system whereby soldiers were aware that certain acts constituted crimes and that they would be punished. This is presumably to assist with the establishment of the command responsibility charge under Article 6(3) of the Statute of the Special Court against the First Accused contained in the indictment.
