    Cambodia: Government Must Introduce Legal Conditions Combating Torture

    Cambodia acceded to the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman and Degrading Treatment or Punishment in October 1992. In September 2005, the Cambodian government signed the Optional Protocol to the Convention against Torture, but has yet to ratify it. However, neither the Convention nor the Protocol have become effectively operational; the government has not criminalised torture or taken specific legislative, administrative, judicial or other measures to prevent acts of torture as required under articles 2 and 4 of the Convention against Torture. Nor has it created a national preventive mechanism as required under article 3 of the Optional Protocol.
