A/HRC/34/54/Add.3 subjecting her to mistreatment, torture, and rape in detention, and by failing to conduct proper, impartial, and independent investigations into these allegations, has violated her rights to be free from torture or cruel or degrading treatment as provided by Article 1, 2 and 16 of the Convention against Torture (CAT). 327. The Special Rapporteur strongly urges the Government of Lebanon to immediately take measures to ensure Mr. al-Kayaje’s physical and psychological integrity and protect her from torture or other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment while under detention. He further urges the Government to undertake a prompt and impartial investigation of Ms. Al Kayaje’s allegations, to prosecute and punish those responsible, and to provide her with reparations in accordance with articles 12 and 14 of the CAT. Lesotho JUA 19/02/2016 Case No. LSO 1/2016 State Reply: 01/06/2016 Allegation of serious threats and attacks against Mr. Kgotso Nthontho. 328. The Special Rapporteur thanks the Government of the Kingdom of Lesotho for its reply, dated 1 June 2016, to the present communication. 329. In spite of the information supplied by the Government, its reply fails to provide information about the allegations of serious threats and attacks against Mr. Nthontho. The Special Rapporteur hence finds that the Government in its reply does not sufficiently address the concerns, legal obligations, and questions raised in the initial communication, prompting him to conclude that the Government fails fully and expeditiously to cooperate with the mandate issued by the Human Rights Council in its resolution 16/23. 330. In the absence of information to the contrary, the Special Rapporteur concludes that there is substance in the allegations presented in the initial communication, available via the link, and thus, that the Government of the Kingdom of Lesotho, by subjecting Mr. Nthontho to persistent threats to his life, damaging his vehicle and home with gunshots, physically preventing him from consulting with a client in court (by means of the intervention of a member of the Lesotho Defense Force), targeting him on a hit list, breaking into his office, and otherwise subjecting him to harassment and threats, has violated his right to be free from cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment, as provided by the article 16 of the Convention against Torture (CAT). 331. The Special Rapporteur draws the attention of the Government to paragraph 8(a) of Human Rights Council Resolution 16/23, which reminds States that “intimidation and coercion, as described in article 1 of the Convention against Torture, including serious and credible threats, as well as death threats, to the physical integrity of the victim off a third person can amount to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or to torture.” 332. The Special Rapporteur urges the Kingdom of Lesotho to comply with its legal obligations to investigate, prosecute and punish all acts of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment, as provided by articles 7 and 12 of the CAT, and to provide the victim with reparations in accordance with articles 12 and 14 of the CAT.
