Forti v. Suarez Mason was a 1987 court case before the US Circuit Court for the Northern District of California. The Court held that torturers were hostis humani generis and thus subject to the jurisdiction of any country, even though the acts had not taken place in that country, and the parties were not citizens of that country.
