Allegations of denial of adequate medical attention to a British human rights defender
in the custody of Ethiopian authorities as well as of an arbitrary death sentence
pronounced against him. According to the information received, Mr. Andargachew
Tsege, who was the subject of forced rendition from Yemen to Ethiopia on 23 June
2014, is being held in incommunicado and prolonged solitary confinement in
Ethiopia. The British Ambassador to Ethiopia has, on three occasions, been granted
brief access to Mr. Tsege; all three visits have been in the presence of security staff
and in a location separate from where Mr. Tsege is being detained. Mr. Tsege’s
mental and physical health is reportedly deteriorating rapidly, however he has not had
access to a doctor. Grave concern is expressed at the allegedly arbitrary death
sentence pronounced against Mr. Tsege and his potential execution; at the
deteriorating mental and physical health of Mr. Tsege; and at his incommunicado and
prolonged solitary detention, and at the alleged denial of access to adequate medical
care and lawyer. Mr. Tsege was the subject of an earlier communication sent on 27
February 2015, see A/HRC/29/50, case no. ETH 1/2015.
