fter the law suit filed before the Spanish justice against 38 senior separatist leaders, the International Agency for Development has sent a delegation to Geneva to bring the attention of this international body to the attacks against the population in the Tindouf camps for many years now.

"We have come here to denounce the human rights violations against many women and girls who have witnessed all kinds of harassment, rape and forced marriages," Agustin Fernandez de la Cruz, a member of the NGO told MAP.

This Spanish lawyer said he is in Geneva "to make long- silenced voices heard, and to urge the UNHRC to take the necessary steps to stop these violations."

He is accompanied by one of the victims, Khadijatou Mohmud Mohamed Zubair, 24, who was brutally raped by one of the Polisario torturers who is none other than the so-called Brahim Ghali, former minister of information and current representative in Algiers of the alleged RASD.

Ghali is summoned to appear before the court of Murcia (south of Spain). His name also appears on the list of officials accused of " genocide, murder, injury, illegal detention, terrorism, torture and forced disappearances" following a lawsuit filed by the Sahrawi Association for the Defense of Human Rights (ASADEDH ) before the Spanish National Court.

A Mauritanian NGO called the United Nations human rights council to conduct an investigation on the case of missing persons in Tindouf (stronghold of the Polisario/southwestern Algeria).

The NGO "Memory and justice" made the plea this Monday at the UN human rights council for an international investigation on cases of forced disappearance and execution in the Tindouf camps, in order to turn "dark pages of 40 years of impunity.
