Amnesty urges Iraq to guarantee fair trials for 5,700 detainees
Original: Iraq: Authorities must guarantee fair trials for 5,700 detainees and protect child rights in mass trials
Amnesty International is calling on Iraqi authorities to guarantee fair trials for around 5,700 detainees currently facing mass proceedings, and to protect the rights of children caught up in the process. The rights group says the scale of the trials raises serious concerns about due process and the treatment of minors within Iraq's justice system.
Why now: Amnesty International has just issued a public appeal over the mass trials, drawing attention to due process and child rights concerns in Iraq.
