Torture survivors and their relatives do not have recourse to effective remedies for their suffering and very rarely receive reparation of any kind, according to an audit conducted by REDRESS, an internationally focused non-profit human rights/legal organisation that helps torture survivors obtain justice and reparation. The report, 'Audit Study: Detailed Analysis of the Law Practice on Reparation and Torture in 30 Countries', included an examination of Kenya, Morocco, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Africa, Sudan and Zimbabwe. The report found that a lack of legal safeguards contributes to the persistence of torture but impunity for perpetrators remains the biggest single obstacle to the prevention of torture and to fair and adequate reparation.
