Enforced Disappearance & Accountability: Bangladesh marked the International Day of Victims of Enforced Disappearances with calls for truth and justice, as the government promoted its Enforced Disappearance Prevention and Redress Act 2026, promising court access, compensation, and penalties. Police Violence & Vigilantism: In Burundi’s Gitega province, multiple deaths followed police operations and alleged beatings, with arrests reported and community anger spilling into road blockages. Missing Persons in Gaza: Gaza’s missing people crisis is highlighted as families struggle to learn whether relatives are alive, dead, detained, or unrecovered amid ongoing mass casualties. Local Justice for State Abuses (Nigeria): Nigeria’s DSS confirmed the death of Calista Ifedi after years of secret detention, renewing scrutiny of military-run facilities and prolonged incommunicado custody. Human Rights in Detention/Immigration (US): New York’s 287(g) ICE agreements ended after state law changes, with sheriffs preparing legal challenges. Land & Property Rights (Zimbabwe): Zimbabwean group MACRAD warns of forced evictions of Chilonga villagers tied to a lucerne project, calling for stronger protections against displacement. Regional Security & Rights: Sahel states’ “security-for-resources” deals are framed as reshaping counterterrorism, raising concerns about new dependencies and human rights risks.
