Doudou Diene, the UN Independent Expert on the situation of human rights in IVORYCOAST, is not happy about president Ouattara's regime. He lamented, Friday, October 12, 2012, during a press conference in Abidjan, that the deadliest attack of the refugees camp in Duékoué in July 2012 by president Ouattara's armed militias in which 137 civilians were massacred , remained unpunished by Ouattara's government.
The UN envoy call to end impunity in IVORYCOAST by Ouattara's regime after the crisis of 2010-2011. "Nobody has been arrested among those who perpetrated the attack on the refugee camp," denounced Doudou Diene last friday in a press conference in Abidjan.
Responsible for reporting on his mission to the Council of Human Rights of the UN, Doudou Diene urged an end to "a culture of impunity from president Ouattara's government." He believed that justice should pursue "all those who have committed crimes" during the last crisis, "regardless of their political leanings."
Three commanders of presdient Ouattara's armed militias who are cited by Human rights groups for committing the worst human rights violations on civilians , received military promotions two weeks ago by president Allassane Ouattara, which some UN experts criticized as mocking abused victims.
Talking about the recent closing of the opposition newspapers and the vandalism of their offices by Ouattara's armed militias, the UN independent expert insisted that "the right to information is a cornerstone of democratic reconstruction."
