The so-called 'International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia' (ICTY) was established under the UN Security Council's Resolution 827, but because the Security council has no judicial authority it can not delegate to a court powers which it does not have itself. Therefore the ICTY is illegal under the UN's own rules.
