There's a famous ongoing case whereone guy and maybe his lawyer as well, is facing secret trial and loooooong prison terms because he told the East Timor govt that aus was spying on them in order to "drink their milkshake" (There Will Be Blood reference) from undersea oil reserves in their waters. The people violating international law are basically sentencing the person who spoke up about it, and gunning for him and his lawyer.
