Is this analysis likely to be used in the legal proceedings against Hissène Habré?
Yes. If Habré stands trial, this analysis is likely to be used as evidence. The claimants submitted the HRDAG report in 2008 to a Senegalese prosecutor as potential evidence in the case against Habré. This analysis addresses the responsibility of individual commanders for human rights violations using administrative documents created by the DDS themselves. HRDAG’s statistical techniques engage key parts of the complaints against Habré.
