We, the undersigned, express deep concern over the removal of valuable stakeholder information by the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) for consideration by UN members states ahead of the 3rd Cycle Universal Periodic Review (UPR) of the People’s Republic of China.
The UPR process, undertaken through the UN Human Rights Council, explicitly welcomes constructive contributions from civil society to address human rights challenges and promote universal human rights norms. All of the undersigned groups submitted reports through the OHCHR’s online platform before the deadline of March 29, 2018 as individual organizations or as joint submissions to be considered by states in the preparation of their recommendations, and by the OHCHR in its official summary of information from civil society.
西藏人权与民主促进中心(TCHRD)为2018年11月举行的中华人民共和国第三次普遍定期审议之前向联合国人权理事会提交了一份关于联合国对中华人民共和国普遍定期审议西藏报告。本中心2018年3月29日的提交了该报告,引起了多方关注,并就任意拘留和酷刑、言论自由、宗教和信仰自由以及隐私权等具体人权问题提出了建议。
西藏人权与民主促进中心(TCHRD)对前西藏政治犯雪努华尔旦不幸逝世的消息深感悲痛,并向死者家属和亲属致以衷心的哀悼。雪努华尔旦有妻子和三个孩子:8岁的儿子丹增贡杰和10岁的女儿南杰卓玛以及5岁的扎西卓玛。
西藏人权与民主促进中心呼吁中国当局立即对由于酷刑和拒绝适当医疗而导致死亡的雪努华尔旦先生进行彻底、公正和透明的调查。如果死亡是故意或疏忽造成的,则政府有义务调查死亡事件,以履行对家庭成员的补救权。此外,调查必须确定起诉死亡同谋的必要事实,以防止其他死亡。对雪努华尔旦先生的死亡和对负责官员起诉进行真实、透明的调查,将发出一个明确的信息,即中国致力于法治,并结束有罪不罚的文化,这种文化不允许在西藏发生侵犯人权的行为。
