Guinea: Wounded youth: Care and justice urgently needed for the victims of unlawful use of force in Guinea
This report looks at the situation of people seriously injured by the forces of law and order during protests in Guinea since 2019, their emergency and long-term medical care needs, and the impunity of those responsible for excessive or otherwise unlawful use of force under the regimes of Alpha Condé (2010-2021) and then the Comité national du rassemblement pour le développement (CNRD). It highlights the responsibility of the Guinean authorities in obstructing the right to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly, the conditions under which law and order are maintained, and the barriers to the victims’ right to reparation, healthcare and justice.
