Comments[edit]

"The Working Group is made up of highly respected human rights experts who are chosen for their expertise in legal matters and for their independence."

This page also needs sources.

There should be a Notable Cases section that covers the judgements of previous cases and their outcomes to the individuals. This is especially the relevant for the recent case of Julian Assange. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.165.124.52 (talk) 16:16, 5 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WGAD discredited itself by saying Assange was imprisoned and should be compensated. What is the point of UN itself anyway? Given the prevalence of wars, war crimes, refugee movements etc in the world, the UN seems to have little influence over world problems or the people and agencies who cause them.
