As part of the organization’s continuing research on the Central African Republic (CAR), Amnesty International sent two researchers to the CAR in July 2010. The main purpose of their visit was to gather information about human rights abuses and the role played by the government, armed group leaders and intergovernmental organizations to uphold human rights and ensure adherence to international humanitarian law.

In this report, Amnesty International highlights human rights abuses committed by various armed groups in the CAR. The organization expresses its concern that in some cases the abuses have been carried out, ordered or condoned by political and military leaders of the armed groups. It makes recommendations to national, regional and international organizations and their leaders to work together to end decades of abuse in the country.
