Torture of gays in Chechnya: "These are crimes against humanity"

This was stated by Pedro Paradiso Sottile, secretary of the Argentine Homosexual Community (CHA) and executive director of the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association for Latin America and the Caribbean (ILGALAC). Following the demonstration in front of the Russian Embassy on April 28, another will be held today in front of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. They will demand that the Argentine State issue a statement and request explanations through the Bilateral Mechanism for Dialogue and Consultation on Human Rights with the Russian Federation.
