UAE Earns Global Praise for Humanitarian Pardon of Bangladeshi Nationals at UNHRC

Last updated on September 26th, 2024 at 09:21 am

During the 57th session of the United Nations Human Rights Council a coalition of over 20 human rights organizations, including the Union Association for Human Rights, lauded the United Arab Emirates for its decision to pardon Bangladeshi nationals convicted of security-related crimes. The statement issued on September 9, 2024, praised the pardon as a clear demonstration of the UAE’s humanitarian values and its commitment to fostering tolerance under the leadership of President Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.

The Bangladeshi nationals arrested over security violations were serving lengthy prison sentences. The decision of UAE to grant clemency not only emphasizes its approach to rehabilitation but also highlights its broader dedication to promoting understanding and compassion. This act has been recognized as an important step toward maintaining peace and stability while respecting human rights.

Mohammed bin Zayed and Mohammed Younus held detailed talks about the pardon of Bangladeshi nationals.

Human rights organizations praised the UAE’s legal and justice system, stating that the presidential pardon reflects the UAE’s strong commitment to fair and independent legal processes. Nine of the organizations involved in the coalition hold consultative status with the UN, further affirming the global recognition of the UAE’s progressive stance on human rights.

The pardon allowed the Bangladeshi nationals to return their home. They get good treatment during detention; this was praised by the UN officials. The UAE acted quickly to carry out the pardon, led by the Attorney General, showing the country’s commitment to peace, tolerance, and global harmony.

UAE’s Leadership and Commitment to Human Rights

This gesture by UAE which opened the door for those Bangladeshi citizens to return home quickly with respect, aligns with President Mohammed bin Zayed’s vision of tolerance. This act by the UAE strengthens the commitment to protect human dignity. The coalition’s praise at the UNHRC highlights the increasing recognition of the UAE’s leadership in global humanitarian efforts.
