Ahmadiyya Persecution in Pakistan: A Systematic Violation of Human Rights
The EU has told Pakistan not to take its GSP+ status for granted because compliance with international human rights obligations is a condition for the trade preferences under the scheme. The EU has also expressed its concerns over Pakistan’s violations of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights which Pakistan signed in 2010.
82th Session CAT : Domestic violence: a form of institutionalised torture?
The socio-judicial treatment of domestic violence in France is a cause for concern. At a time when our country, the self-proclaimed defender of human rights, is struggling to protect children and their protective parents from domestic violence, it is crucial to highlight the serious malfunctioning of our institutions. These practices, which I describe in a file submitted to the UN Committee against Torture as a form of institutionalised torture, expose the victims to a double penalty: that of the violence suffered and that of the procedures that condemn them to injustice and create new traumas.
UN OHCHR Syria: Children’s rights at the heart of the issues after the fall of the Assad regime
The fall of Bashar al-Assad’s regime on 8 December 2024 after fourteen years of civil war marks a major turning point for Syria.

In the light of this particularly worrying information, based on data from international reports and first-hand accounts, I have submitted a dossier to the United Nations to draw attention to these injustices and make concrete recommendations.

new condemnation of UNADFI : no, UNADFI is not above the law
On December 2, 2024, the Marseille Magistrates’ Court ordered UNADFI (Union Nationale des Associations de Défense des Familles et de l’Individu) to publish a right of reply from CAP Liberté de Conscience on its website within 48 hours, subject to a penalty of 50 euros per day of delay.
