A delegation of the National Human Rights Committee of Qatar, headed by Chairman H E Dr Ali bin Sumaikh Al Marri, yesterday reached Geneva from London to attend the 35th session of the United Nations Human Rights Council, which is under way.
Dr Al Marri met with officials from the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, and with the Office of Special Procedures — a group of independent human rights experts with mandates to report and advise on human rights issues.
Dr Al Marri called on UN officials to take action over the human rights violations against Qatari citizens, and citizens of some Gulf countries working and residing in Qatar whose countries are enforcing a siege upon Qatar.
