Addressing the armed groups, the Independent Expert:
(a)
Urges them to cease immediately all hostilities and attacks against
civilians, to respect the peace agreements that they themselves have signed and to
respect the rights of civilian populations, in particular the rights to life, security and
physical integrity. Sexual violence is a serious human rights violation, and every rape
committed during or in connection with an armed conflict constitutes a war crime
that must not go unpunished;
