Gender perspectives on torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment 2016, para. 70o
- Paragraph text
- [With regard to women, girls, and lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender persons in detention, the Special Rapporteur calls on all States to:] When the detention of children with their mothers in prison is unavoidable,implement effective safeguards, including regular monitoring and review of every case to ensure that the children are never treated like prisoners; ensure that the full range of the children's needs, whether medical, physical, psychological or educational, including living conditions that are adequate for a child's development, are guaranteed in practice;

Impunity as a root cause of the prevalence of torture 2010, para. 88
- Paragraph text
- While the appalling conditions of detention in most countries of the world could be effectively addressed by adopting a special United Nations convention on the rights of detainees, no further standard setting is required to combat torture. Its prohibition is one of the few absolute and non-derogable human rights and part of ius cogens, and the Convention against Torture and its Optional Protocol contain a broad range of very specific positive State obligations aimed at preventing and combating torture. If States parties to the Convention and the Optional Protocol would abide by their legally binding obligations, torture could easily be eradicated.

The death penalty and the prohibition of torture and cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment 2012, para. 74
- Paragraph text
- To date, the death penalty has been treated under the provisions concerning the right to life, and therein as an exception provided for by international law. A new approach is needed as there is evidence of an evolving standard within international bodies and a robust State practice to frame the debate about the legality of the death penalty within the context of the fundamental concepts of human dignity and the prohibition of torture and cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. This evolving standard, along with the resulting illegality of the death penalty under such prohibition, is developing into a norm of customary law, if it has not already done so.

Review of the standard minimum rules for the treatment of prisoners 2013, para. 85
- Paragraph text
- Over the past few decades, there has been a significant increase in the worldwide prison population, placing an enormous financial burden on States. It is estimated that there are over 10 million prisoners in the world, and prison populations are growing on all five continents. Imprisonment has become an almost automatic response rather than a last resort, as mirrored in increasing and disproportionate penalization, excessive use of pretrial detention, increased length of prison sentences and little use of non-custodial alternatives (see General Assembly resolution 45/110, annex). Furthermore, the penitentiary system in most countries is no longer aimed at the reformation and social rehabilitation of convicts but simply aims to punish by locking offenders away. Non-compliance with international standards in relation to conditions of detention is caused by resource constraints and by the punitive approach of most criminal justice systems. Corruption too clearly plays a negative role (see A/64/215 and Corr.1, para. 80).

Role of forensic and medical sciences in the investigation prevention torture and other ill-treatment 2014, para. 59
- Paragraph text
- States have an obligation to put in place and apply an effective process of evidence collection that accords with the Istanbul Protocol to comply with their obligation to investigate allegations of torture and other ill-treatment. The Special Rapporteur notes that adequate, extensive forensic evaluation in accordance with the Istanbul Protocol, and the effective training of health, legal and other professionals involved in documenting and investigations of torture and other ill-treatment, will positively impact the detection and prevention of torture. Properly supported cases with good quality forensic reports are revolutionizing the investigation of torture and improving outcomes. Good reports include analysis and interpretation of findings in terms of consistency with alleged events. They make clear that the absence of outward signs does not exclude the events from having happened.

The scope and objective of the exclusionary rule in judicial proceedings and in relation to acts by executive actors 2014, para. 66
- Paragraph text
- The exclusionary rule covers the exclusion of statements obtained through torture or other ill-treatment of the defendant himself, or of a third party, and evidence obtained in a third State, even if the State seeking to rely on the information had no previous involvement in or connection to the acts of torture or other ill-treatment. Similarly, documentary or other evidence obtained as a result of acts of torture or other ill-treatment must be excluded, irrespective of whether such evidence has been corroborated or is not the only decisive evidence in the case.

Children deprived of their liberty from the perspective of the prohibition of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment 2015, para. 71
- Paragraph text
- There is widespread agreement among experts that the institutionalization of children contributes to physical underdevelopment, abnormalities in brain development, reduced intellectual abilities and development, delays in speech and language development, and diminished social skills. Inappropriate conditions of detention exacerbate the harmful effects of institutionalization on children. The Special Rapporteur observes that one of the most important sources of ill-treatment of children in those institutions is the lack of basic resources and proper government oversight.

Children deprived of their liberty from the perspective of the prohibition of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment 2015, para. 83
- Paragraph text
- Regular and independent monitoring of places where children are deprived of their liberty is a key factor in preventing torture and other forms of ill-treatment. Monitoring should be conducted by an independent body, such as a visiting committee, a judge, the children's ombudsman or the national preventive mechanisms with authority to receive and act on complaints and to assess whether establishments are operating in accordance with the requirements of national and international standards. Independent monitoring mechanisms should draw on professional knowledge in a number of fields, including social work, children's rights, child psychology and psychiatry, in order to address the multiple vulnerabilities of children deprived of their liberty and to understand the specific normative framework and overall system of child protection.

Working methods, thematic priorities and vision for a meaningful anti-torture advocacy 2017, para. 54
- Paragraph text
- Throughout his tenure, the Special Rapporteur intends to continue some of the thematic work streams initiated by his predecessors, such as the envisaged protocol on non-coercive interviewing and other issues arising in the area of police custody and pretrial detention. Furthermore, the Special Rapporteur will also endeavour to widen the protection space for victims of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. To that end, he intends to take up a number of issues that have not yet received systematic attention from the international community, such as torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment occurring in relation to forced migration, in extra-custodial settings and at the hands of non-State actors.

Impunity as a root cause of the prevalence of torture 2010, para. 87
- Paragraph text
- Although torture constitutes one of the most brutal human rights violations and a direct attack on the core of human dignity, it continues to be widely practised in the majority of States in all parts of the world. This alarming conclusion of the Special Rapporteur on torture is based on his experience after carrying out the mandate for almost six years, and after conducting 17 fact-finding missions to countries in all regions of the world and preparing three joint studies together with other special procedures mandate holders.

Prohibition of torture and other ill-treatment from an extraterritorial perspective 2015, para. 71

Paragraphe
Children deprived of their liberty from the perspective of the prohibition of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment 2015, para. 74
- Paragraph text
- In this context, the Special Rapporteur recalls that the death penalty for children amounts to a violation of the prohibition of torture and other ill-treatment. Other punishments considered grossly disproportionate also amount to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. Life imprisonment and lengthy sentences, such as consecutive sentencing, are grossly disproportionate and therefore cruel, inhuman or degrading when imposed on a child. Life sentences or sentences of an extreme length have a disproportionate impact on children and cause physical and psychological harm that amounts to cruel, inhuman or degrading punishment. Similarly, the Special Rapporteur finds that mandatory sentences for children are similarly incompatible with the State's obligation regarding children in conflict with the law and the prohibition of cruel, inhuman or degrading punishment. Mandatory minimum sentences may result in disproportionate punishments that are often overly retributive in relation to the crimes committed, particularly in relation to the child's individual circumstances and the opportunity for rehabilitation. In the light of the unique vulnerability of children, including the risk of torture or ill-treatment in detention and States' obligation of due diligence to afford children heightened measures of protection against torture and other forms of ill-treatment, children must be subject to sentences that promote rehabilitation and re-entry into society.

- In determining the seriousness of acts that may constitute ill-treatment or torture, due consideration must be given to physical and mental effects and the age of the victim. In the case of children, higher standards must be applied to classify treatment and punishment as cruel, inhuman or degrading. In addition, the particular vulnerability of children imposes a heightened obligation of due diligence on States to take additional measures to ensure their human rights to life, health, dignity and physical and mental integrity.
