A/HRC/28/68/Add.1 children under the responsibility of the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security. 557. The Rapporteur finds that the Government, in its reply, does not sufficiently address the concerns, legal obligations, and questions raised in the initial communication, which prompts him to infer that the Government fails to fully and expeditiously cooperate with the mandate issued by the Human Rights Council in its resolution 25/13, as well as to comply with its obligation, under international customary law, to investigate, prosecute and punish all acts of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, as codified, inter alia, in the Convention against Torture (CAT). 558. In the absence of sufficient information to the contrary, the Rapporteur concludes that there is substance in the allegations presented in the initial communication, that as of April 2014 over 430 persons, mostly women and children, have remained in immigration detention centres that are overcrowded, with inadequate food and sanitation conditions. Thus, that the Kingdom of Thailand by failing to protect the physical and psychological integrity of these individuals, has violated their right free from torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment, as provided by articles 1 and 16 of the CAT. 559.

The Rapporteur strongly urges the Government of Thailand to protect the right of the detained persons to be free from torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment, as provided by articles 1 and 16 of the CAT, and to refrain from extraditing these detained persons to any country where they would be at risk of torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, thereby ensuring compliance with article 3 of the CAT.
