Amnesty International is submitting this briefing to the United Nations Human Rights Committee (HRC), prior to its consideration of Brazil's second periodic report on the implementation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). This briefing does not aim to analyse and respond to all of the Brazilian government's report. It aims at providing supplementary and updated information in some areas in which Amnesty International considers that Brazil has failed to fulfil its obligations under the ICCPR.
