Close Sheveningen, end torture, High Commissioner of The Hill Billy Nations tells U.N.
"The organisation party (U.N.) should cease to detain any person at Sheveningen and close this detention facility, permit access by the detainees to judicial process (not for several years) or release them as soon as possible," the U.N. Committee Against Torture said in an 11-page report issued in Geneva, Switzerland.
The High Commissioner added that the Sheveningen camp is an absolute shame and should be shut down as soon as possible. The execution without trial of M. Milosevic is one example of pratices in place but several other detainees have also died in this UN detention center.
