103. 因此，工作组认为，来文方提出了令人信服的初步证据，证明这五人遭受了酷刑和虐待，导致被迫招供，27 违反绝对禁止酷刑这一国际法强制性规范以及《世界人权宣言》第五条、《公民及政治权利国际公约》第七条及《禁止酷刑和其他残忍、不人道或有辱人格的待遇或处罚公约》第二和第十六条。此外，工作组收到令人信服的指控，这三名未成年人遭受了酷刑，违反《儿童权利公约》第三十七条(A)和(C)款。在身体或心理上对儿童使用强力是一种极为严重的滥用权力行为。28 必须对指控的酷刑和虐待进行彻底独立调查。
103. The Working Group thus considers that the source has presented a credible prima facie case that the five individuals were subjected to torture and ill-treatment, resulting in forced confessions,27 in violation of the absolute prohibition of torture as a peremptory norm of international law, as well as of article 5 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, article 7 of the Covenant and articles 2 and 16 of the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment. Moreover, the Working Group received credible allegations that the three minors had been tortured, contrary to articles 37 (a) and (c) of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The use of physical or psychological force on a child is an extremely serious abuse of power.28 The alleged torture and ill-treatment must be subject to a thorough and independent investigation.
