Practice Relating to Rule 121. Location of Internment and Detention Centres
Senegal’s IHL Manual (1999) provides that one of the fundamental guarantees common to IHL conventions and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is that detention centres shall not be located close to trouble zones. Persons deprived of their liberty shall be evacuated when the place becomes particularly dangerous.
