Counter terror: Stop torture, end impunity
26 June is International Day in Support of Vicitms of Torture. Call on governments to stop torture and end impunity in the context of counter terrorism.
Government responses to the threat of terrorist attacks have led to a weakening of the framework of international human rights. States are resorting to practices which have long been prohibited by international law, and have sought to justify them in the name of national security.
