(6) The Committee takes note of the proposed revision of the Criminal Code, which would incorporate provisions on the definition and criminalization of acts of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.

(8) The Committee also welcomes the promulgation in 2002 of Act No. 06/PR/2002 on the promotion of reproductive health, which sets out the right not to be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment of a person’s body in general and their reproductive organs in particular, and which prohibits, among other things, female genital mutilation, early marriage, domestic violence and sexual violence.

(12) The Committee welcomes the lifting of the immunity of the former Chadian Head of State, Hissène Habré, and the State party’s clear determination to cooperate fully with the judicial authorities responsible for investigating and conducting proceedings against Mr. Habré. C. Main subjects of concern and recommendations Definition of torture (13) The Committee is concerned at the absence of an explicit definition of torture in the current Criminal Code that would make acts of torture punishable under criminal law, in accordance with articles 1 and 4 of the Convention. While welcoming the bill to revise the Criminal Code, which does contain a definition of torture, the Committee is concerned that the definition is incomplete and is therefore not entirely in conformity with article 1 of the Convention (arts. 1 and 4). The State party should urgently revise and adopt the bill amending and supplementing the Criminal Code so that the Code includes a definition of torture in conformity with article 1 of the Convention, as well as provisions criminalizing acts of torture and making them punishable by criminal penalties proportional to the seriousness of the acts committed. 72
