Fighting Impunity: A guide on how civil society can use Magnitsky Acts to sanction human rights violators

4 August 2020. Safeguard Defenders is releasing the simplified Chinese version of Fighting Impunity: A guide on how civil society can use Magnitsky Acts to sanction human rights violators. This comprehensive manual, aimed at civil society, is the first of its kind and provides step-by-step instructions on how to file recommendations for sanctions on perpetrators of gross human rights violations.

The manual also provides an in-depth ‘investigator’s guide’, showing in detail how to make use of China and Hong Kong-based registers and resources to track down the perpetrators of human rights crimes – from their license plates, phone numbers, social media and to company ownership. Written in consultation with professional due diligence investigators who have worked in China and Hong Kong before, this is a valuable resource for researchers.

Information about this in English here, and in (simplified) mandarin here.
