UNITED NATIONS OFFICE OF THE HIGH COMMISSIONER FOR HUMAN RIGHTS IN NEPAL
Statement to the Press
Report of the High Commissioner for Human Rights to the General Assembly
Ian Martin
Representative of the High Commissioner for Human Rights
in Nepal
|
The first Report of the High Commissioner for Human Rights to the General Assembly on the human rights situation and the activities of her Office in Nepal was released in New York during Dashain. We have a Nepali translation of the Report available here today. The Report will be presented by the High Commissioner when she addresses the General Assembly in New York next week.
The Report first describes human rights and humanitarian law violations committed in the context of the armed conflict by the State authorities or by the CPN (Maoist).
In common with the National Human Rights Commission and civil society organizations,we welcome the reported reduction in killings since the CPN(Maoist) unilaterally declared a ceasefire.
