186. Specifically in respect of Children, the Court takes cognisance of the concluding observations of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child which stated that it is:59 extremely alarmed about the killings of children with albinism including for ritual purposes …[and] concerned that the root causes of the violence including murder, mutilations, and trafficking of body parts, are insufficiently addressed, that prosecution of offenders is hampered by fear and the reported complicity of some State authorities, and that children with albinism have been placed in boarding schools/shelters for children with special needs. 187. With respect to accountability, the Court notes that the evidence adduced by the Applicants demonstrate that as of January 2014, only 11 out of the 139 reported cases, resulted in convictions by the national courts. Also, of the 76 murders of PWA documented in the Respondent State’s territory since the year 2000, only five cases are known to have resulted in successful prosecutions. 188. The Court observes that, the Respondent State contends that since 2006 to the date of the filing of the present Application, it had prosecuted 49 cases involving PWA and convicted the perpetrators accordingly. Given that the number submitted by the Applicants as of 2014 was 139, the Court finds that at least 90 cases would not have been resolved favourably, which unfortunately is a high percentage. 189. In light of the foregoing, the Court finds that the Respondent State has not effectively discharged its duty to prevent, effectively investigate and punish perpetrators of killings of PWA. 190. Accordingly, the Court finds that the Respondent State violated the right to life under Article 4 of the Charter and Article 6 of the ICCPR.
