Contents Summary

Days after the U.N. Commission on Human Rights in Geneva introduced a resolution on the situation in Chechnya, Human Rights Watch released a new 49-page report, "Last Seen": Continued "Disappearances" in Chechnya, detailing 87 cases of "disappearances" carried out between September 2000 and January 2002. The actual total of "disappearances" is believed to be far higher.

This video was made by Witness, Memorial and Human Rights Watch to accompany this report. It features video testimony by relatives by some of the disappeared.
