REPORT: Addressing Mass Incarceration, Ill-Treatment, and Weaponization of Emergency Prison Law for Palestinian PrisonersThis report outlines the alarming escalation of human rights violations against Palestinian prisoners within the Israeli prison system, including children, women, the elderly, and the disabled. Since October 7th, the enactment of emergency prison laws by the Israeli parliament has intensified arbitrary arrests, administrative detentions without formal charges, and systemic mistreatment of prisoners, including torture and enforced disappearances. Israel’s mass incarceration campaign has significantly increased and has led to a surge in detentions across Gaza, the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel, subjecting detainees to deplorable conditions and denying them essential medical care.

Report: Palestine—Genocide, Apartheid, and OccupationThere is a growing consensus that Israel is committing a genocide as part of its military campaign. The persecution and discrimination faced by Palestinians arguably meets every stage of the “10 stages of genocide”, a common method of categorizing genocidal situations across the globe. The critical report confirms this reality by detailing the decades of persecution and explores the impact of this genocide on Palestinian children.
It is thus critical that the international community, including the United States and Canada, take action on an urgent basis to halt their complicity in the genocide in Gaza and punish the crimes committed by Israel. |

Law As An Instrument of OppressionThe Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) is an act that the government of India has instituted to prevent terror-related activities and activities that may endanger the sovereignty and integrity of India. However, according to Amnesty International and the United Nations, the UAPA does not fulfill international human rights standards. Since 2019, Police have booked more than 2,364 people under UAPA and nearly half of them are still languishing in jail inside and outside the Kashmir valley.
Using case studies, this detailed report dives into the application of the UAPA in Indian Occupied Kashmir and how it is structured and designed to repress dissent and human rights. The law criminalizes a particular set of beliefs or opinions that the government might deem unlawful or “anti-national”. |
