Algeria - November 2022

Algerian authorities launched an investigation into the enforced disappearances of activists missing since October. This is the latest incident in a worrying array of human rights violations in Algeria, where hundreds of activists and protesters have been arbitrarily detained, and dozens were subjected to torture and other ill-treatment at the hands of the security forces. Amnesty International has raised concerns and urged the government to ensure an effective and impartial investigation as serious human rights violations in Algeria have been spreading and escalating, and security forces responsible for these violations continue in impunity.
