AF Submits Review Reports to UNSRT & WGEID

10 December, 2010

Advocacy Forum submitted two separate review reports to UN Special Rapporteur on Torture and Working Group on Enforced Disappearances (UNWGEID) with regard to the implementation made by them during their respective missions back in 2005 and 2004 respectively.

In their joint submission, Advocacy Forum and REDRESS has urged the Special Rapporteur on Torture to take the above information into consideration when reviewing the implementation of recommendations made after his mission to Nepal in 2005.

Likewise, in its review report regarding the implementation of recommendations made by the Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances (WGEID), AF has requested to the WGEID to step up its efforts to ensure accountability and reparation for the thousands of victims of enforced disappearances during the armed conflict from 1996 to 2006, the fate or whereabouts of at least 1,300 of whom remain unknown.
