Security Council Unanimously Backs Move to Deploy UN Police in Burundi
New York - Arab Today

The UN Security Council unanimously adopted a resolution setting the stage for the deployment of UN police to Burundi, where killings, torture and increased disappearances have created a climate of fear and led more than 250,000 people to flee to neighboring countries. 
The French-drafted resolution welcomes the consent of Burundi’s authorities to increase the number of AU human rights observers from 100 to 200 and allow 100 AU military experts. It notes that 30 human rights observers and 15 military observers have been deployed so far, according to the UN new center.
The resolution asks Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to consult Burundi’s government and coordinate with the African Union and present options within 15 days for the deployment of UN police in order to increase monitoring of the security situation, promote respect for human rights and advance the rule of law. 
Burundi was thrown into crisis this past April when President Nkurunziza decided to run for a controversial third term that he went on to win in July. To date, it has been reported that more than 400 people have been killed, more than 250,000 have fled the nation, and thousands more have been arrested and possibly subjected to human rights violations. 
The resolution also strongly condemns human rights violations including extrajudicial killings, sexual violence, torture, intimidation of civil society organizations and journalists, and restrictions on fundamental freedoms.
