Chad: the Habré legacy

This document highlights the extent of human rights violations committed under the Habré government (1982-1990), based on information published by Amnesty International at that time, and is intended to strengthen the campaign to end the impunity for the crimes committed in Chad. The document demonstrates the serious and widespread nature of violations committed under Hissein Habré and stresses that violations have continued under his successor, President Idriss Déby. The Habré Legacy also highlights the complicity of foreign countries in the violations committed under the Habré government and the destructive consequences of the impunity which has reigned for so long in Chad and which continues even today.
