Information from the Government
382. The Working Group reviewed two communications from the Government of Turkey
dated 29 January and 9 May 2007. In both communications, the Government of Turkey provided
death certificates related to five cases, to which the Working Group decided to apply the
six-month rule.
383. The Government also replied in 12 other cases, concerning people having disappeared
between 1991 and 2001. Most of the replies indicated that investigations by local authorities
were ongoing. In several cases, the Government indicated that the Prosecutor had concluded that
the cases fell under the jurisdiction of military courts. The Working Group decided that the
responses were considered insufficient to clarify the cases.
