Torture in Vietnam 2018: A Joint NGO Report to the UN Committee against Torture

Download Full Report (pdf)
​Vietnam signed the UN Convention Against Torture in November 2013.  Five years later, police brutality, torture, and lethal beatings continue unabated throughout Vietnam.
​
In this joint report by Vietnamese and international civil society organizations to the United Nations Committee Against Torture, we document the widespread use of torture in Vietnam, the systematic impunity of the abusers, and the lack of concrete action by the government of Vietnam to effectively reduce and prevent acts of torture.

​The report offers specific recommendations to the Vietnamese government and international stakeholders on practical approaches to systematically abolish torture in Vietnam.
