Committee Expresses Concern about Acts of Violence during Peaceful Demonstrations in Colombia and Recalls that No Exceptional Circumstances Can Be Invoked to Justify Enforced Disappearance
The Committee on Enforced Disappearances this afternoon closed its online twentieth session after adopting concluding observations on the initial reports of Mongolia and Switzerland on their implementation of the provisions of the International Convention on the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance, and on a report containing complementary information presented by Colombia.
Koji Teraya, Committee Rapporteur, presented the annual report on the Committee’s nineteenth and twentieth sessions. During the two sessions, the Committee had adopted more than 16 official documents, ranging from five lists of issues, four sets of concluding observations, two reports on urgent actions, to a new format for the submission of urgent action requests to the Committee.
