Скачать или смотреть HRC49: Mahmoud al-atmi intervention/ Houthi violations

Mahmoud al-Atmi is a Yemeni journalist and member of the Yemeni Journalists Syndicate. His journalist wife, Rasha Al-Harazi, was assassinated by the Houthi group.

Today, he presented his intervention in the Human Rights Council, at its 49th session, in the general debate under Item 3. Mahmoud is still receiving threats from the Houthi group.

Maat for Peace recommends that the member states of the Human Rights Council pressure the Houthi group to open an investigation about the assassination of Rasha al-Harazi, and to abolish the death sentence issued against four Yemeni journalists, as well as pressure the Houthi group to release hundreds of forcibly detained detainees, including Muhammad al-Salahi and Muhammad Awad.

Maat for Peace would like to draw the Council's attention to the spread of the culture of impunity for the murders of journalists, and the continuation of reprisals and intimidation against journalists in Yemen.
