"Mr President, I would like to thank the authors of this resolution. The murder of Floribert Chebeya Bahizire on 2 June has led to more than 50 organisations, and Ban Ki-moon himself, calling for an independent investigation. His work defending human rights led to threats to his life including repeated threats from the police, and it is my understanding that he was actually visiting an inspector at a police station on 1 June; we know that on 2 June his body was found.
I would like to seek reassurances that the Commission and the Council will press for an independent investigation, and also that his family will be kept safe. I think that this is a reminder to us all that we take many of our human rights for granted. He defended human rights and he defended them to his death. He needs our respect."@en1
