<p>The UK is party to the United Nations Convention Against Torture and the optional
protocol to that Convention. Torture is illegal in the UK and under international
law. Those who have committed crimes abroad that fall under the ICC Statute, including
genocide and crimes against humanity, can be tried in the UK if they come here. The
Home Secretary may exclude an individual from the UK if their presence here is not
conducive to the public good or our national security.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>
