Situation during the visit A/HRC/33/51/Add.1 Measures taken/current situation Level of implementation and observations (to be completed by the WGEID) JWF – IAHRA Geneva No such law has ever been promulgated or even proposed for discussion and adoption in the Turkish Parliament. LLG – TGRLSP Turkey has not introduced a law or legislative framework recommended by the Working Group. The Government still lacks transparency and arbitrarily withholds information on the activities of state officials and institutions. ICJ There is still no legislative framework concerning access to information in enforced disappearance cases. 79. Continue cooperating with the humanitarian mandate of the Committee on Missing Persons in Cyprus and activate the process of access to burial sites to support the families affected through return to them of the remains of their missing relatives. Paragraph 28 Ministry of Foreign Affairs Turkey continues to support the work of the Committee on Missing Persons (CMP) in Cyprus. Turkey has been contributing annually to the budget of the CMP, which reached almost 1 million dollars. The most recent contribution was in the amount of 100,000 Dollars in July 2019. In addition to 30 areas for the period 2015-2018, CMP’s request for access to 30 additional suspected burial sites located in the military areas in the TRNC have been granted in June 2019. There will be no time constraints attached to this unhindered access and excavation planning will be made by the CMP. Human Rights Association It is not the case ICJ On 14 June 2019, CMP reported that Turkey had granted access for CMP excavation teams to 30 suspected burial sites in military areas in the north of Cyprus. According to CMP, Turkey also donated 92.000 EUR and 200.000 USD from 2017 to 2019. Since 2016, a total number of 345 missing Turkish and Greek Cypriots were identified during excavations and exhumations. The Working Group welcomes the readiness of the Government of Turkey to support the ongoing transitional justice processes led by the Committee on Missing Persons (CMP) in Cyprus. However, it calls on the Turkish military authorities to make the sites in the northern parts of Cyprus accessible to the CMP for further assessments at all times. In addition, full access to military archives should be provided to the CMP and family associations, with a view to identifying new burial sites. The Working Group recalls its general comment on the right to the truth in relation to enforced disappearances which provides that “each victim has the right to know the truth regarding the circumstances of the enforced disappearance, the progress and results of the investigation and the fate of the disappeared person.
