WHO or which mouse shall bell the cat ?

Many countries' citizens have filed claims against China. I saw this from India today, a complaint to the Human Rights Committee (HRC) of the UN.
The HRC consists of 47 countries - see below. By looking at those countries and the UN report on China's funding (as a % of the member states' GDP), the answer is clear. Only a dozen or 25% of the voting members are not funded by the CCP as of now. This means, the motion to censure China will be defeated by a vote of 75% nays.
Considering the UN itself is a lame duck, I'm confident that it will NOT censure China (aka the CCP) for the accusation against it, if a motion was brought up via the Security Council. In fact, with China being a Permanent member, it's veto power will ensure the motion is not even brought up.
Perhaps these legal conscious citizens of the US, Turkey, UK, India and Australia (maybe there are more but I am not aware) would be better off suing the CCP in the World court ?
Again - China's $$$ buys many friends. I have little confidence that besides the US, anyone can censure this juggernaut.
