English term or phrase: by virtue of

U tekstu se radi o ratnim zlocinima. Evo recenice:
... an act that constitues genocide according to customary international law or conventional international law of by vitue of its being criminal according to the general principles of law...
Mislim da je napravljena stamparska greska pa umjestu "or" stavljeno "of". Jesam li u pravu i kako bi se to moglo prevesti ? Molim pomoc.

U pravu ste. Mislim da je taj "of" u ovom kontekstu potpuno suvišan.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Hvala, ali nisam mislila na "of" u "by virtue of", nego na "of" koje tome prethodi u recenici i cini recenicu meni tesko razumljivom. Zeljela bih znati da li i Vama to izgleda kao greska ili moram traziti neko trece rjesenje. Unaprijed hvala
