Amnesty International Report 2007

• Violence Against Women
• Control Arms
• Death Penalty
• Torture and Terror
• International Justice

They do not and cannot tell the whole story of all the human rights abuses committed across the world in 2006. They are representative of the cases known to Amnesty International but they do not amount to an exhaustive list. As the Death Penalty statistics illustrate, the true number of instances of abuse and denial of rights are certainly far greater than this snapshot can show.
