Title: The conditions of the child in Tunisia Authors: Cheikh, Hella Turki Ben Abstract: This paper explores the conditions of the child in Tunisia and investigates whether the child in this state enjoys his full human rights. In the first part, I will describe the place of the child in this country and examine his/ her situation. Then, I will study the rules and codes established by the government that promote the status of the child in general and the girl in particular. The next part is an assessment of the extent of improvement of the position of the Tunisian boys and girls. Indeed, this part will deal with the critical issues that hamper the Tunisian children from enjoying their full rights. In fact, according to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child, despite the progress that this country has achieved in the field of children's rights, there are still inequalities from which these children suffer.

Title: Human rights violation under police custody in Bangladesh Authors: Goni, Mohammad Ridwan; Murad, Mohammad Hasan; Chowdhury, Mohammad Aktarul Alam Abstract: This article is intended to examine the methods and practice of torture under police remand, and its justification from the Bangladesh perspective. It argues that human rights are violated with impunity to the government's law enforcing agencies from the moment of suspicious arrest until the end of the remand period in the name of extracting confessional statement. The police have consistently been misusing their power to arrest people without warrant and in most cases for illegal purposes on the excuse of maintaining law and order situations of the country. The arrested people are often subjected to brutal torture in order to extract information and confession. The police have lost public confidence and immediate reform measures are required to recover the trust of the people. In response to rising pressures and continuing criticisms from various quarters, a slow move towards reforming the law and procedures of police remand is under way. This article is intended to emphasize the urgency of such reform and lastly the article offers certain remedial measures with some highlighted recommendations to solve or minimize the torture at custody and violations of human rights in the name of remand for extracting confessional statements from a detained person.
