PART 2: Procedures of the Human Rights Commitee and the Committee against Torture – Full name of the victim. – Date on which the incident(s) of torture occurred (at least as to the month and year). – Place where the person was seized (city, province, etc.) and location at which the torture was carried out (if known). – Indication of the forces carrying out the torture. – Description of the form of torture used and any injury suffered as a result. – Identity of the person or organization submitting the report (name and address, which will be kept confidential).480 A very useful tool to assist someone who is writing a submission to the Special Rapporteur is the model questionnaire available in English and French at: http://www.ohchr.org/EN/Issues/Torture/SRTorture/Pages/model.aspx. Although it is not compulsory to submit the communication in this style, the questionnaire identifies the information which should be included if possible. As much detail as possible should be given in any communication to the Special Rapporteur. However, if precise details are not known or unclear, this should not preclude a communication from being made (subject to the basic informational requirements outlined above). Other information which should be included includes any copies of documents which support the allegations, such as police or medical reports. The postal and email address for urgent appeals, letters of allegation and other communications to the Special Rapporteur is: Special Rapporteur on Torture c/o Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights United Nations Office at Geneva CH-1211 Geneva 10 Switzerland Email: urgent-action@ohchr.org For further information on the work of the Special Rapporteur and procedures for submitting a complaint please refer to the United Nations website at: http://www.ohchr.org/EN/Issues/Torture/SRTorture/Pages/SRTortureIndex.aspx and http://www.ohchr.org/EN/HRBodies/SP/Pages/Communications.aspx. 480 See “Model questionnaire to be completed by persons alleging torture or their representatives”, available at: http://www.ohchr.org/english/issues/torture/rapporteur/model.htm. 147
