Manual on the Effective Prevention and Investigation of Extra-Legal, Arbitrary and Summary Executions (English)
Drafted in consultation with lawyers from The Advocates for Human Rights (formerly the Minnesota Lawyers International Human Rights Committee), this manual, which supplements the Principles on the effective prevention and investigation of extra-legal, arbitrary and summary executions (adopted by the Economic and Social Council in its resolution 1989/65 of 24 May 1989), contains international human rights standards, a model protocol for investigating extra-legal, arbitrary, and summary executions, a model autopsy protocol, and a model protocol for disinterment and analysis of skeletal remains.
