The government is moving to introduce legal provisions ensuring compensation, rehabilitation and security for victims of enforced disappearances and their families.
Under the proposed legislation, victims who return after being subjected to enforced disappearance would be entitled to compensation and other forms of state support.
Their families would also receive necessary protection, assistance and rehabilitation.
The proposed framework is part of broader efforts to establish accountability for enforced disappearances and ensure justice and redress for victims.
A proposed directorate would also oversee medical treatment, legal protection, rehabilitation and compensation for victims, along with social and economic support for their families.
