Event: renditions, extraditions and human rights

Jan 30, 2018 | Agendas, Events

The ICJ invites you to an event to discuss challenges in prevention of, and accountability for, violations of human rights in renditions and other transfers of suspects, including through past European complicity in US-led renditions, and in ongoing transfers of suspects in the CIS region.

Join us for a discussion marking the EU launch of the International Commission of Jurists’ report, Transnational Injustices: National Security Transfers and International Law. The event is kindly hosted by Ana Gomez and Eva Joly, MEPs.

Panelists will discuss the ongoing practice of states unlawfully rendering people accused of terrorism, accountability for violations of human rights in past renditions, and how the EU institutions and EU Member States should address these.

When: Tuesday 30 January 16.00 – 18.00

Where: Room A5G305, European Parliament, Brussels

RSVP to: [email protected] 

Speakers include:
