Tibet and the Chinese People’s Republic

Asia
Issue: Global Security
Document Type: Fact Finding Mission
Date: 1960

The ICJ decided to invite a number of well-known judges, professors and practitioners to form an independent committee charged with the task of investigating events in Tibet in a detached and judicial manner and reporting to the Commission on the field of its inquiry.

Thus happened in view of the gravity of the violations of human rights in Tibet, of which evidence appeared, and especially in view of the evidence of genocide.

This is the unanimous report of that Committee. The report sets out the Committee’s findings together with a detailed review of the facts and evidence upon which those findings are based. The Committee’s findings constitute a detailed condemnation of Chinese rule in Tibet and they confirm the prima facie conclusions made in the preliminary report by the Commission.
