BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Despite their having the UNHCR attestation papers, Kadir Hasan ahmed, Fatih Mohamed Ali, Abdul Aziz Ahmed and Muhamed Abdo Ahmed   have been handed over to the security forces of the Ethiopian Government by the government of Djibouti at the Ethio-Djibouti border  in February 2008 (HRLHA Urgent Action No 1, February 18, 2008, )

Under Article 33 (1) of the Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees (189 U.N.T.S. 150), “[n]o contracting state shall expel or forcibly return a refugee in any manner whatsoever to the frontiers of territories where his life or freedom would be threatened on account of his . . . Political opinion.”

The Ethiopian government has a well-documented record of gross and flagrant violations of human rights, including imposing a death penalty, and torturing of its own citizens who were involuntarily returned to the country. The government of Ethiopia routinely imprisons such persons. There have been credible reports of physical and psychological abuses committed against individuals in Ethiopian prisons and other secret places of detention. This obligation, which is also a principle of customary international law, applies to both asylum seekers and refugees, as affirmed by UNHCR’s Executive Committee and the United Nations General Assembly.

By handing over the Ethiopian refugees and others, the Djibouti Government is breaching its obligations under international treaties as well as customary laws.

Under the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (1465 U.N.T.S. 185), Djibouti has the obligation not to return a person to a place where they face torture or ill-treatment. Article 3 of the Convention against Torture provides:

No state party shall expel, return (“refouler”) or extradite a person to another state where there are substantial grounds to believe that they would be in danger of being subjected to torture.

For the purpose of determining whether there are such grounds, the competent authorities shall take into account all relevant considerations including, where applicable, the existence in the state concerned of a consistent pattern of gross, flagrant or mass violations of human rights.
