Комитет по правам человека ООН и граждане Кыргызской Республики: анализ практики

Abstract

The UN Human Rights Committee is a mechanism for the protection of human rights specified in the International Covenant on Civil and Political rights. States that have ratified this international Treaty are obligated to respect these rights. Individuals who believe that their rights have been violated by a state party can file a complaint with the UN Human Rights Committee and, if the complaint is considered admissible, their application is accepted for consideration. Since the Kyrgyz Republic became a party to the International Covenant on civil and political rights citizens were given the opportunity to defend their rights in an international institution when national remedies failed. Data and quantitative indicators of appeals against the Kyrgyz Republic to the UN Human Rights Committee are presented. The analysis of these data on the recognition of violations by the state or their absence is carried out. At the same time, it was revealed that in recent years there has been an increase in the number of appeals against the Kyrgyz Republic. Consideration of issues related to compliance with the recommendations of the UN Human Rights Committee has led to the identification of problems with the lack of such systematic data. As a result, the author proposed measures to help reduce violations of civil and political human rights in the Kyrgyz Republic, as well as recommendations with changes in the legal norm, in order to provide access to data on the measures taken by the Kyrgyz Republic to consider each recommendation of the UN Human Rights Committee.
