69. 据来文方报告指称，这批学生在被逮捕和随后被关押期间遭受虐待、身体暴力、酷刑行为和强奸威胁。来文方还称，他们通过这种方式被迫签署了事先准备好的警方报告，并且无法阅读其内容。工作组注意到，政府没有反驳这些指控。工作组回顾，《公约》第七条等规定禁止酷刑，而且，根据《公约》第十四条第三款(午)项，刑事案件不得接受被迫作出的供词。在本案中，法官没有对这些指控采取措施，而且使用了据这批学生称并非自愿作出的供词，工作组因此得出结论认为，诉讼是不公正的。70. 此外，工作组注意到，来文方指称，这批学生在被逮捕和被带见法官时没有获得法律援助。随后，他们不准提交无罪证据以供纳入案卷，也不准完整陈述案情。他们的律师在诉讼期间也被多次打断。工作组回顾指出，所有被告均有权
69. The source alleges that the members of the group of students were subjected to ill-treatment, physical violence, torture and threats of rape when they were arrested and then while they were in police custody. The source also reports that they were forced by these means to sign police reports that had been prepared in advance, without having had the opportunity to read them. The Working Group notes that the Government has not contested these allegations. The Working Group recalls that torture is prohibited, under article 7 of the Covenant in particular, and that forced confessions cannot be used as criminal evidence, under article 14 (3) (g) of the Covenant. In the present case, the Working Group concludes that the trial was not fair, in view of the judges’ failure to respond to the above allegations and the use of confessions that had, according to the members of the group of students, been obtained against their will.
