Convicting a War Criminal

Emperor Asha Sarkar sat within the confines of a cell in the city of Anangpur. For the past few weeks, the Anangpur Empire had held him captive, while the German Army and their Indian allies liberated his newly conquered territories. 

Despite being a prisoner of war, being charged with a multitude of war crimes, the cell which Asha sat in was not, by any means, inhumane. A simple cot existed for his sleeping needs, along with a chamberpot, and a bathtub. This was obviously the influence of the German Empire, who treated their prisoners of war with some dignity and respect. 

Two guards protected the cell, but they were given strict orders not to interact with the prisoner other than to help fulfill his basic needs. They were prohibited by law from insulting or degrading the man, despite the horrific damage he had caused to the region. Thus, all they could do was stand and protect a war criminal until the trial commenced.
