Oral statement on the outcome on Algeria under the Universal Periodic Review

Amnesty International believes that to give full effect to its commitments, Algeria should take immediate steps to ensure that officers of the DRS no longer exercise judicial police functions; open full, independent and impartial investigations into all reports of enforced disappearance, torture, violence against women, and secret detention; bring to justice those responsible for such violations; repeal laws that discriminate against women; and criminalize acts of domestic violence.
