Law, commission on enforced disappearances finalised with UN support
Enforced disappearances remain one of the most serious human rights violations in Bangladesh. Victims and their families endure unimaginable suffering, and over the past few decades, a culture of enforced disappearance has instilled deep fear among the public. In response, the current interim government is set to enact a law specifically addressing enforced disappearances, under which a dedicated commission will also be formed. The draft of the law has already been prepared by the Ministry of Law, and with assistance from the United Nations, both the law and the commission are expected to be in place by July.
