A/HRC/19/47 report. The Afghan authorities launched their own investigation, reassigned personnel, in the case of NDS, and initiated remedial action. NDS and MoI have repeatedly renewed their commitment to take the findings of the report seriously and to develop a clear plan of action for addressing the concerns raised therein, but as of late 2011, follow-up had failed to produce substantive changes. 44. In response to the OHCHR/UNAMA report, the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) took immediate action to support the Afghan authorities in reforming their interrogation and detainee-treatment practices. Under this remedial scheme, ISAF suspended all transfers from international military custody to 16 NDS and ANP facilities where UNAMA had found compelling evidence that torture and ill-treatment took place. Additionally, ISAF developed a six-phase plan, including on-site facility inspection, training on human rights and detainee treatment, monitoring detention facilities, supporting accountability actions by the Government and facilitating transparency between ISAF and Government detention operations. Throughout November and December 2011, ISAF completed all initial rounds of inspection of NDS and ANP detention facilities, regularly updating OHCHR/UNAMA as they undertook on-site inspections, trained NDS and ANP staff, including guards and investigators in detention facilities throughout the country. ISAF indicated that it would not restart the transfer of detainees to facilities tainted by allegations of torture until this programme of remedial measures of inspections and training is fully implemented and certified. 45. OHCHR/UNAMA documented that in a large number of cases, families refused to accept women released from prisons back to their homes. Without proper post-release transition shelters for women, provincial departments of women affairs and local women’s shelters have been accommodating several released female detainees. As courts commonly convict women for adultery in Afghanistan, it is common for families to reject the return of released female prisoners. Moreover, women fear that they will face violence and/or be forced into marriages on their return home. To address the problem, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), in partnership with relevant Government ministries and non-governmental organizations, established the first post-release transition shelters in Mazar-e-Sharif and Kabul to facilitate successful reintegration of women prisoners into civilian life prior to and after their release, including through providing shelter, security, food, psycho-social and capacity-building support. VI. Support to national institutions 46. OHCHR/UNAMA continues to collaborate and provide technical support to AIHRC, both at the national and provincial level, to assist in capacity-building of its staff, particularly in those areas where they have taken on new tasks and responsibilities. In one such instance, AIHRC has taken on the role of police oversight, at the behest of the Ministry of Interior. To support the investigative staff in assuming these responsibilities, the European Union’s Police Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (EUPOL) collaborated with OHCHR/UNAMA to provide training to AIHRC staff on police accountability and investigation skills. OHCHR/UNAMA and AIHRC implemented a number of joint training activities on human rights and violence against women for civil society partners at the provincial level. AIHRC and OHCHR/UNAMA continue to share information and undertake joint advocacy initiatives on key human rights issues. 47. As per commitments made at the Kabul Conference,9 AIHRC worked with line ministries and civil society to develop a three-year action plan for the implementation of the 9 14 The international conference on Afghanistan, held in Kabul on 20 July 2010.
