Orientation Program for Victims of Enforced Disappearance’s Access to Justice
INSEC commenced an orientation program for the provincial coordinators and document officers of seven provinces to enhance access to justice for the victims of enforced disappearance in Janakpurdham on June 5, 2023.
Speaking at the event, INSEC Chairperson Dr. Kundan Aryal said that the cases related to this subject should be resolved so that the family of the disappeared persons has access to justice. He also requested all the INSEC members to be active in working towards ensuring access to justice for victims.
He said, “More than the achievements, challenges, and complications related to this subject, it is necessary for the civil society to be serious about the issue that draws the attention of the government by increasing the role of all stakeholders in the latest plans and strategies related to problem-solving. Citizens can get the guarantee of human rights only if the traditional human rights concept is oriented toward society. ”
