“Human rights atrocities are committed virtually every day, somewhere in the world,” states Amnesty International in its 1996 report.
“Feitlik elke dag word menseregte iewers in die wêreld geskend”, sê Amnestie Internasionaal in sy verslag vir 1996.

Freedom of religion is a fundamental right which is guaranteed by the Constitution of Singapore.”—Amnesty International, November 22, 1995.

According to a report by Amnesty International, human rights violations forced over 23 million people worldwide to flee from their homes in 1994.
Volgens ’n verslag deur Amnestie Internasionaal het die skending van menseregte wêreldwyd meer as 23 miljoen mense gedwing om in 1994 van hulle huise af weg te vlug.

“As the number of people seeking protection has increased, so too has the reluctance of states to provide that protection,” explained a recent Amnesty International report.
“Namate die aantal mense wat beskerming soek, toegeneem het, het state ook al hoe onwilliger geword om daardie beskerming te verleen”, verduidelik ’n onlangse verslag deur Amnestie Internasionaal.

Amnesty International reports: “Work on the gang lasts for 10-12 hours often in hot sun, with very brief breaks for water, and an hour for lunch. . . .
Amnestie Internasionaal het gesê: “Die kettinggangers werk 10-12 uur lank, en dikwels in die warm son, met baie kort rustye vir water en ’n uur vir middagete. . . .

Amnesty International’s impartial observer, Andrew Raffell, himself a Hong Kong barrister, said the following: “I put in my report that it had the appearance of a show trial.”
Amnestie Internasionaal se onpartydige waarnemer, Andrew Raffell, wat self ’n advokaat in Hongkong is, het die volgende gesê: “Ek het in my verslag gesê dat dit na ’n skynverhoor gelyk het.”

The economic clout of these multinationals often exceeds that of governments and, as Amnesty International points out, “human rights and labour rights are not a priority on their agenda.”
Die ekonomiese krag van hierdie maatskappye is dikwels groter as dié van regerings en, soos Amnestie Internasionaal sê, “menseregte en arbeidsregte is vir hulle nie ’n hoë prioriteit nie”.

According to the human rights organization Amnesty International, 150 companies around the world have allegedly joined this gruesome trade, including 30 in Germany and 97 in the United States.
Volgens die menseregte-organisasie Amnestie Internasionaal het 150 maatskappye regoor die wêreld na bewering by hierdie grusame bedryf aangesluit, insluitende 30 in Duitsland en 97 in die Verenigde State.

“Death during forcible deportation, torture in detention, systematic police ill-treatment, and ethnic and religious repression” are among the human rights abuses observable in Europe, reports a news release by Amnesty International.
“Sterfgevalle gedurende gewelddadige deportasies, marteling in aanhouding, mishandeling deur die polisie en etniese en godsdienstige onderdrukking” is onder die menseregteskendings wat in Europa opgemerk word, berig Amnestie Internasionaal in ’n persverklaring.

Canada: “Despite embracing [the country’s] diversity and instituting numerous legal and policy provisions to protect the rights of diverse communities, racism has continued to be a serious human rights challenge.” —Amnesty International briefing on Canada, 2012.
Kanada: “Al is [die land] se verskeidenheid aanvaar en is talle wetlike voorsienings en beleidsmaatreëls ingestel om die regte van verskillende gemeenskappe te beskerm, is rassisme nog steeds ’n ernstige probleem wat menseregte betref.”—Amnestie Internasionaal se verslag oor Kanada, 2012.

As the study by Amnesty International, Oxfam, and the International Action Network on Small Arms points out, “societies that were once largely peaceful, with any scores being settled with fists or knives, have been transformed by guns.”
Soos die studie deur Amnestie Internasionaal, Oxfam en die Internasionale Aksienetwerk rakende Kleingewere toon, “is gemeenskappe wat vroeër redelik vreedsaam was, en waar enige geskille met vuiste of messe uit die weg geruim is, deur vuurwapens verander”.

When they were released, Amnesty International announced that it welcomed the release of Dimitrios Tsirlis and Timotheos Kouloumpas and expressed the hope that in the future, ministers of Jehovah’s Witnesses would be exempt from military service in accordance with the provisions of Greek law.
Nadat hulle vrygelaat is, het Amnestie Internasionaal aangekondig dat dit die vrylating van Dimitrios Tsirlis en Timotheos Kouloumpas verwelkom het, en hulle het die hoop uitgespreek dat bedienaars van Jehovah se Getuies in die toekoms van diensplig vrygestel sou word in ooreenstemming met die voorsienings van die Griekse wet.

In February 1992, Amnesty International stated that it “believes that [Anastasios Georgiadis] has been imprisoned solely on the basis of discriminatory treatment on the part of the military authorities against Jehovah’s Witness ministers and is calling for his immediate and unconditional release as a prisoner of conscience.”
In Februarie 1992 het Amnestie Internasionaal verklaar dat hulle daarvan “oortuig is dat [Anastasios Georgiadis] slegs gevange geneem is weens die militêre owerheid se diskriminering teen bedienaars van Jehovah se Getuies en op sy onmiddellike en onvoorwaardelike vrylating as ’n gewetensbeswaarde” aandring.
