Police And Killings In Brazil

EDM number 470 in 2009-10, proposed by Lindsay Hoyle on 15/12/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Human rights and Latin America.

That this House notes with concern the Human Rights Watch report that attributes up to 11,000 deaths to the hands of Brazilian police since 2003; urges the Brazilian federal government to challenge state governments about the figures and to question the power the police have to investigate internally all homicides involving law enforcement authorities; and calls on the Government to support international human rights groups in raising awareness of the matter and thereby putting pressure on the Brazilian authorities to address the factors involved.

This motion has been signed by a total of 34 MPs.
