I'm not sure I agree. Sanctioning individuals is a pretty common tactic on the international stage.

These people are not head of states, they are not war criminals, they do no oppress their citizens, they are not building weapons of mass destruction. These are the causes for the sanctions you are talking about.

Come on. That's bird logic.

This is just nonsense with an offensive remark on top. The EU and USA regularly sanction people who do none of the things you mentioned, just to punish their respective governments.

"press photographer in Germany"

Did you read the allegations? These are people accused of stealing money from the tunisian population. For me it falls under oppression of citizens. Even if you don't agree, they are criminals. Not war crime prosecutors, whose crime is investigating war crimes.

So what if the guy also works as a press photographer? Does that give him immunity from being a criminal?

Sure, you can redefine everything as it suits you. "Stealing money fron the Tunisian population" is similar to tax fraud. You turn it into a war crime or being dictators.

Lacking recognition of legitimacy, a court is just a kidnapping gang.
