HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION
59th session
17 March – 25 April 2003
[Excerpt from the statement]
We are witnessing an increasing number of violations of the rights of migrants, refugees and minorities. Measures taken to ensure security and combat terrorism are being used as a cover for these serious violations. We will cite a few examples of these violations here in order to draw the attention of the Human Rights Commission to the need to put an end to these practices against vulnerable groups.
