HUMAN RIGHT COMMISSION ABOUT ARREST OF ENKBAYAR
Its head J.Byambadorj and members J.Dashdorj and P.Oyunchimeg visited on Friday the detention center in Tov aimag and met with N.Enkhbayar who was arrested Friday morning.
The NHRC considers that a process of arresting N.Enkhbayar breached the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and also its Convention against torture. For example, servicemen of the special unit forced N.Enkhbayar to go out of his home after sounding the court resolution, even no letting him get dressed.
"I learned that the servicemen treated N.Enkhbayar in very inhuman and cruel ways in aperiod from the arrest at home until reaching the detention center," J.Byambadorj said, and highlighted that the detained gains a certain right which prevents a situational torture. "A situational torture means domestic and international standards of detention center," he explained.
A member of the NHRC P.Oyunchimeg noted about international treaties, conventions and national laws on rights and legal status of the detained person, and underlined that any detained person or a prisoner has a right to his/her reputation respected by others as a related code says. In addition, the judge chooses the detention house for the suspected, by Mongolia's law on criminal procedure, so it also breaches the above international code, P.Oyunchimeg said.
"In accordance with the international convention, the detained or a prisoner shall be detained in a house which is the closest to his/her home. So, this clause has been violated as well because N.Enkhbayar is in the detention center in Tov aimag which an hour and a half far from the cuty," she said.
