The findings of OHCHR point to a constantly deteriorating human rights situation, exacerbated by the erosion of the rule of law.
OHCHR notes with concern that the emergency decrees foster impunity and lack of accountability by affording legal, administrative, criminal and financial immunity to administrative authorities acting within the framework of the decrees.
