Resolution of the @achpr_cadhp on Justice for Victims of Serious and Massive Human Rights Violations and International Crimes in the Democratic Republic of Congo since 1997 - ACHPR/Res.643 (LXXXV) 2025

What are Reparations? They are deliberate actions to acknowledge and remedy historic and ongoing injustices through restitution, compensation, rehabilitation, memorialisation, truth-telling and more. Reparations restore dignity, repair harm, and help build a fairer future. As the AU continues the continental conversation on Reparations, Justice & Healing, we affirm: Africa has the right to justice. Africa has the right to repair. Africa has the right to thrive.

#Benin On 14 July; Hugues Comlan Sosoukpe, a Beninese HRD journalist, was brought before the judge in Cotonou, Benin and placed in provisional detention. He has been unjustly charged with incitement to rebellion, incitement to hatred and violence, and more- according to the provisional detention order signed on 14 July. This comes after he was abducted on 11 July by local police officers in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire and sent to Benin, to be handed to Beninese authorities. The HRD previously left Benin to seek asylum as he faced risk in Benin due to his human rights work. We believe these charges are in retaliation for his legitimate human rights work. Front Line Defenders calls for his immediate and unconditional release, and for the Beninese government to drop all charges against him. Read more: zurl.co/OLDGZ

#Togo Since June 2025, human rights defenders in Togo have faced increasing obstacles while carrying out their human rights work, particularly following mass citizen-led protests in Lomé on 25-27 June 2025. Front Line Defenders strongly condemns the targeted restrictions on internet access since the escalation of state violence in Togo, which severely impede the work of human rights defenders and civil society actors during a critical period of public mobilisation.
