Selon les informations reçues, depuis la mi-août, les forces de l’ordre malgaches auraient commis de nombreux cas de torture et d’exécutions sommaires dans le cadre des opérations militaires contre des voleurs de bovidés dénommés “dahalos” dans le sud du pays. Ces faits s’ajoutent à des actes répétés du même genre commis entre 2012 et 2015. De graves préoccupations sont exprimées quant au manque d’investigations concernant les cas allégués. A/HRC/31/79 119
