Advocacy Forum, and REDRESS submission on the state of implementation of the Special Rapporteur on Torture’s recommendations following his Mission to Nepal in 2005

Advocacy Forum and REDRESS have submitted an update on the implementation of recommendations made by then-Special Rapporteur, Professor Manfred Nowak, after his mission to Nepal in 2005. The information provided in this submission is based on Advocacy Forum’s work in Nepal monitoring places of detention, and (in partnership with REDRESS), its work with victims of torture and other serious human rights abuses to combat impunity and achieve justice through legal proceedings, legislative reform, and advocacy. We welcome the opportunity to further discuss these issues with the Special Rapporteur.
