Article 1(a) of the Convention. Punishment for expressing certain political views or views ideologically opposed to the established political, social or economic system. The Committee notes that, following the adoption of Ordinance No. 2010-035 of 4 June 2010 establishing the freedom of the press, the Ordinance of 1999, which in turn repealed Act No. 97-26 on which the Committee had commented previously, has been repealed. The Committee notes with satisfaction that, with the adoption of Ordinance No. 2010-035, press-related offences such as insults and defamation may no longer be punished by prison sentences.
The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
