Public defenders, magistrates, prosecutors, judges, organisations for the defence of human rights, legal institutions and social movements from all over Brazil\u00a0<\/span>are against custody hearings via videoconference<\/b>, a matter which is to be voted on at a virtual plenary session by the CNJ on Monday 22 June at 2pm.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In a letter sent to CNJ advisers, the organisations state that\u00a0<\/span>a custody hearing via virtual channels would not be fulfilling its function<\/b>, because it would not be possible for the magistrate to identify indications of the practice of torture and also because there would be no guarantee of a suitable environment for the detainee to be heard.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A group of over 150 organisations called on the CNJ to postpone voting, to hold public debates, provide a scaled timetable for the resumption of in-person hearings and for CNJ Recommendation 62, which highlights the<\/span> need for qualified experts in order to detect torture, <\/b>to be observed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If voting on the resolution goes ahead, the organisations are<\/span> in favour of upholding article 19 of the proposal that vetoes videoconferencing for those in custody.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

The organisations have formed the campaign #TorturaN\u00e3oseV\u00eapelaTV, launched on social media, to block virtual custody hearings. There will be drive for users to tweet the hashtag, on Monday at 11am.<\/span><\/p>\n
