[11] Bakomeza bavuga ko uburenganzira bwo kugira ubuzima bwiza kandi bushimangirwa mu ngingo ya 12 (1) y’Amasezerano Mpuzamahanga yerekeye Uburenganzira mu by’Ubukungu, Imibereho Myiza n’Umuco (ICESCR), iteganya ko buri muntu wese afite uburenganzira bwo kugira ubuzima bwiza ku rwego rwo hejuru rushoboka ku mubiri ndetse no mu mutwe. [12] Bavuga ko n’ubwo nta gisobanuro cy’ijambo « ubuzima bwiza » Itegeko Nshinga ritanga, Ishami ry’Umuryango w’Abibumbye ryita ku Buzima (WHO) ryatanze icyo gisobanuro nk’imimerere yuzuye ku mubiri, mu bwenge no mu mibereho myiza. Bakomeza bavuga ko bashingiye kuri icyo gisobanuro, kugira imibereho myiza bitavuze kuba nta byorezo cyangwa indwara biriho, ko ahubwo mu mibereho myiza harimo n’ibindi byose nk’ubuzima bw’imyororokere, guhabwa serivisi zerekeranye n’ubuvuzi bw’abagore, kuboneza urubyaro ndetse no kugira amakuru ku bijyanye na serivisi y’ubuzima yo gukurirwamo inda mu buryo bwemewe n’amategeko kandi bwizewe. [13] Bavuga kandi ko amategeko mpuzamahanga yerekeye uburenganzira bwa muntu ateganya ko, mu rwego rwo kuzamura ireme ry’ubuzima bwiza, ibihugu bifite inshingano zo gushyiraho serivisi zerekeranye n’ubuzima bw’imyororokere zujuje ubuziranenge. Kugira ngo iyo nshingano yubahirizwe, bigasaba ko haboneka amakuru ahagije ku bijyanye n’ubuzima bw’imyororokere, ko habaho ibigo byita ku buzima bw’abantu, ko abakozi babihugurirwa kandi bakaba abanyamwuga, ndetse hakaboneka n’imiti y’ingenzi. [14] Ku birebana n’uburenganzira ku buzima bwiza kandi, abahagarariye GLIHD bavuga ko Komite ikurikirana iyubahirizwa ry’amasezerano mpuzamahanga yerekeye uburenganzira mu by’ubukungu, imibereho myiza n’umuco yasesenguye ingingo ya 12 y’ayo masezerano ari nayo ihuye n’iya 21 y’Itegeko Nshinga, isanga kugira ngo ubwo burenganzira bwubahirizwe bisaba ibintu by’ingenzi bikurikira: - Kuba abaturage bashobora kugera ku rwego rw’ubuvuzi (accessibility), ibi bigasobanura ko serivisi y’ubuvuzi ndetse n’imiti bigomba kubonekera ku rwego rw’ubuvuzi rwegerejwe abaturage. - Kuba nta vangura (non-discrimination) mu guhabwa serivisi z’ubuvuzi. Ibi bisobanuye ko imiti na serivisi z’ubuvuzi bigomba guhabwa buri wese nta vangura ribayeho cyane cyane hitabwa ku matsinda y’abantu basanganywe ibibazo bitandukanye byaba ibijyanye n’amategeko cyangwa ibigaragarira buri wese (the most vulnerable and marginalized sections of the population, in law or in facts). Urugero: abana basambanyijwe, abagore n’abakobwa bafashwe ku ngufu n’abandi. - Kuba abaturage bose bashobora kwishyura serivisi z’ubuvuzi (affordability). Ibi bisobanuye ko ibikorwa remezo by’ubuvuzi, imiti na serivisi z’ubuvuzi bigomba kuba bishobora kugerwaho na buri wese mu bushobozi bwe. [15] Bashingiye ku bimaze kuvugwa haruguru, abahagarariye GLIHD basobanura ko kuba abana b’abakobwa basambanyijwe bagaterwa inda, itegeko ribategeka guhabwa serivisi yo gukurirwamo

inda na muganga gusa, bibangamiye uburenganzira bwabo kuko uyu muganga aba ku bitaro gusa kandi abo bana nta bushobozi ndetse nta n’igihe cyo kugerayo bafite. Bongeraho ko kuba abandi baturage babonera serivisi z’ubuvuzi ku kigo nderabuzima aricyo cyegerejwe abaturage, ariko abagore n’abana b’abakobwa bemerewe gukuramo inda kubera impamvu zitandukanye nko gufatwa ku ngufu, gushyingirwa ku gahato n’izindi, bo bagategekwa kubonera iyo serivisi ku bitaro, nabyo bibangamiye uburenganzira bwabo ku buzima bwiza. [16] Barangiza bavuga ko ibyategetswe mu ngingo ya 125, igika cya 2 n’ingingo ya 126, igika cya 3, z’Itegeko Nº 68/2018 ryo ku wa 30/08/2018 riteganya ibyaha n’ibihano muri rusange ko serivisi y’ubuvuzi yo gukuriramo inda umugore cyangwa umukobwa ubyemerewe n’amategeko bikorwa n’abaganga bemewe na Leta gusa bibangamiye uburenganzira bw’abagore n’abana b’abakobwa bwo kugira ubuzima bwiza buteganywa n’Itegeko Nshinga ndetse n’Amasezerano Mpuzamahanga kuko bituma iyo serivisi y’ubuvuzi itaboneka cyangwa ngo igerweho uko bikwiye kubera ko muganga wemewe na Leta aba ku bitaro gusa, mu gihe urwego rw’ubuvuzi rwegerejwe abaturage ari Ikigo Nderabuzima n’amashami yacyo (postes de santé). Bavuga ko kuba iyo serivisi idatangirwa ku rwego rw’ubuzima rwegerejwe abaturage kuko aho nta baganga bahaba, ngo ibe yatangwa n’abaforomo n’ababyaza, bituma iyo serivisi itaboneka bigaca intege abagore n’abana b’abakobwa bigatuma bakuramo inda mu buryo butizewe kandi babyemerewe n’amategeko, bikongera n’ibyago ku bagore n’abakobwa kuko bashobora gupfa babyara. [17] Uhagarariye Leta y’u Rwanda avuga ko ingingo ya 1231 n’iya 1242 z’Itegeko Nº 68/2018 ryo ku wa 30/08/2018 riteganya ibyaha n’ibihano muri rusange, zitangira zigaragaza ihame ry’uko gukuramo inda cyangwa gukuriramo undi muntu inda bibujijwe kandi ko ari icyaha, ingingo ya 125, igika cya 2, n’iya 126, igika cya 3, z’iryo Tegeko zo zikaba zerekana ibihe bidasanzwe (exceptions) umugore cyangwa umukobwa yemerewe gukurwamo inda na muganga wemewe na Leta. [18] Akomeza avuga ko ahereye ku biteganywa n’ingingo ya 12 y’Itegeko Nshinga iteganya ko umuntu wese afite uburenganzira bwo kubaho, ko ntawe ushobora kuvutswa ubuzima mu buryo bunyuranyije n’amategeko, no ku ya 21 iteganya ko abanyarwanda bose bafite uburenganzira bwo kugira ubuzima bwiza, asanga ntaho binyuranyije n’ibiteganyijwe mu ngingo ya 125, igika cya 2, n’iya 126, igika cya 3, z’Itegeko Nº 68/2018 ryo ku wa 30/08/2018 riteganya ibyaha n’ibihano muri rusange, kubera ko ibijyanye n’uburenganzira bwo kubaho birengerwa n’ingingo ya 123 n’iya 124 z’iryo tegeko. [19] Uhagarariye Leta avuga kandi ko ku bijyanye n’Amasezerano Mpuzamahanga, uruhande rurega rushingiraho, akwiye gukurikizwa nk’andi mategeko kuko yemejwe n’u Rwanda, ariko ko 1 Iteganya ko umuntu wese wikuyemo inda, aba akoze icyaha.

amwe muri yo ateganya ko gukuramo inda biterwa n’impamvu zidasanzwe. Atanga urugero rw’ingingo ya 14, igika cya 2, agace ka (c), y’Amasezerano y’inyongera ku masezerano Nyafurika ku burenganzira bwa muntu n’ubw’abaturage yerekeye uburenganzira bw’umugore yashyiriweho umukono i Maputo ku wa 11 Nyakanga 2003 iteganya ko mu gihe abagore babyifuza bemerewe gukuramo inda babifashijwemo n’abaganga mu gihe habayeho gutwita nyuma yo gukorerwa ibikorwa by’urukozasoni, gufatwa ku ngufu, guterwa inda n’uwo bafitanye amasano, cyangwa mu gihe gukomeza gutwita iyo nda bishobora gushyira ubuzima bw’utwite cyangwa iyo nda, mu kaga3. [20] Akomeza avuga ko izo mpamvu enye (4) zemerera umugore gusaba gukuramo inda mu bihe bidasanzwe, zemeranyijweho n’ibindi bihugu byasinye ayo masezerano. Asobanura ko nk’uko bisanzwe bigenda, amasezerano mpuzamahanga atanga imirongo migari, maze buri gihugu kigashyiraho amategeko cyangwa ingamba ziyashyira mu bikorwa hashingiwe ku muco, ubushobozi cyangwa izindi mpamvu, akaba ari muri urwo rwego ingingo zaregewe zabujije gukuramo inda ku bushake ariko Leta ishyiraho izo mpamvu enye zonyine zatuma umugore cyangwa umukobwa yemererwa gukuramo inda. [21] Asoza kuri iyi ngingo avuga ko GLIHD yakabaye ivuga no ku Itegeko N° 21/05/2016 ryo ku wa 20/05/2016 ryerekeye ubuzima bw’imyororokere y’abantu kuko iryo Tegeko risubiza bimwe mu bibazo yibaza bijyanye n’ubuzima bw’imyororokere y’umugore hamwe n’inshingano za Leta mu kubungabunga ubuzima bw’umugore n’ubw’abana, ko rero ibiteganyijwe mu ngingo ya 125, igika cya 2 no mu ngingo ya 126, igika cya 3, z’Itegeko Nº 68/2018 ryo ku wa 30/08/2018 riteganya ibyaha n’ibihano muri rusange, bitanyuranyije n’Itegeko Nshinga. [22] Ku birebana no kuba serivisi yo gukuramo inda ku bagore n’abakobwa babyemerewe idashobora gutangirwa ku Bigo Nderabuzima ngo itangwe n’abaforomo n’ababyaza nk’uko uwatanze ikirego abyifuza, Minisiteri y’Ubuzima (MINISANTE), mu nyandiko Uhagarariye Leta yashyize muri dosiye, ivuga ko gukuramo inda mu buryo bwizewe kandi bwemewe n’amategeko bidashobora gukorerwa aho hantu ku nyungu z’abashaka iyo serivisi, kuko hari igihe bakenera ubutabazi bwo mu rwego rwo hejuru ntibabe bahabubonera. Ishingiye ku byemejwe n’abahanga mu by’ubuzima nka Calvert C. Na Owolabi O., Minisiteri y’Ubuzima igaragaza ko ubushakashatsi bwerekana ko imwe mu ngaruka zikomeye zikunze kubaho mu gihe cyo gukuramo inda ari ukuva amaraso menshi mu buryo bukabije, icyo gihe bikaba byagorana kubikemurira ku Bigo nderabuzima kuko bisaba kongerera amaraso uwakuriwemo inda (transfuse) ndetse bibaye na ngombwa akabagwa inda ibyara (utérus). Ibyo bikorwa byombi bikaba bisaba kubera ku rwego rw’Ibitaro Bikuru (Hospitals) kugira ngo abaganga babizobereyemo (medical doctors) babe bafatanya kubikemura. [23] Izindi mpamvu Minisiteri y’Ubuzima ishingiraho ivuga ko iyo serivisi igomba gutangirwa mu Bitaro Bikuru (Hospitals), ni uburyo uwakuriwemo inda aba agomba kwitabwaho haba mbere ndetse na nyuma y’icyo gikorwa kugira ngo hirindwe ingaruka zacyo, ibikoresho bikenerwa mu kubanza kumenya uko umwana ameze mu nda (ultrasound) n’ibijyanye no kumenya ubwoko bw’amaraso (Blood Group) na Rhesus mu rwego rwo kurinda uwakuriwemo inda mu gihe yongeye gusama.

[24] Minisiteri y’Ubuzima isobanura kandi ko mu nshingano zitandukanye z’abaforomo (nurses) n’ababyaza (midwives) zigenwa n’Iteka rya Minisitiri N°20/2518/04/2012 rigena uko imyuga y’ubuforomo n’ububyaza ikorwa, ntaho bashinzwe gutanga serivisi yo gukuramo inda. Ndetse umubare muto w’ababyaza (1562 midwives for a population estimated at 12,518,757) mu Rwanda, aho usanga hari ikigo nderabuzima kidafite n’umwe, ahandi hari umwe nawe udakora buri munsi, ukaba waba imbogamizi mu gukurikirana umugore wakuriwemo inda ku Kigo Nderabuzima, bityo Minisiteri y’Ubuzima ikavuga ko kubera izo mpungenge zose, gukuramo inda bigomba gukorerwa ku Bitaro Bikuru ahari abaganga babizobereyemo ndetse hari n’uburyo bufasha kuri buri kibazo cyavuka ku buryo cyabasha gukemurwa n’itsinda rigari ry’abaganga. [25] Ku bivugwa na Minisiteri y’Ubuzima, GLIHD ivuga ko yemeranya nayo ku birebana n’imfu n’ubumuga bikomoka ku gukuramo inda bikozwe mu buryo butizewe kandi ko byakumirwa mu gihe bikozwe n’abantu babifitiye ubumenyi. GLIHD ivuga ko ibi bishyigikira igitekerezo cyayo cy’uko ububasha bwahawe abaganga b’inzobere bwo gukuramo inda mu buryo bwizewe kandi bwubahirije amategeko, bwahabwa abakora mu bigo nderabuzima hagamijwe kwirinda izo mfu mu gihe abakeneye gukurirwamo inda badashoboye kubona abaganga b’inzobere kubera ubuke bwabo. Ku bw’ibyo isaba ko Minisiteri y’Ubuzima yaha amahugurwa abakora mu bigo nderabuzima mbere y’uko batangira gutanga izo serivisi, dore ko benshi muri bo bahuguwe ku birebana n’ubuvuzi burebana n’ingaruka zo gukuramo inda.

Ivuga ko iri tegeko rituma abashobora kubona serivisi zo gukuramo inda ari abagore bafite ubushobozi bwo kubona umuganga cyangwa bafite amikoro yo kuriha ingendo cyangwa amafaranga yo kwishyura kwa muganga. Ivuga kandi ko mu bindi bihugu, abakozi bashinzwe ubuzima batari abaganga bahuguwe, batanga serivisi zo gukuramo inda mu buryo bwizewe kandi bagakurikirana abarwayi nyuma yo kubaha iyo serivisi. Byongeye kandi n’amabwiriza mpuzamahanga y’ubuvuzi, na yo yemera ko abatanga serivisi z’ubuzima zoroheje bashobora kandi bakwiye kwemererwa gutanga serivisi zo gukuramo inda. [31] Ikomeza isobanura ko kubera inzitizi zibangamira gukuramo inda mu buryo bwizewe kandi bwemewe n’amategeko, abagore n’abakobwa benshi mu Rwanda bakuramo inda mu buryo butizewe bigashyira ubuzima bwabo mu kaga.

Turkey, Application no. 48939/99, para. 71. In this connection, the Court reiterates that Article 2 does not solely concern deaths resulting from the use of force by agents of the State but also, in the first sentence of its first paragraph, lays down a positive obligation on States to take appropriate steps to safeguard the lives of those within their jurisdiction. […] The Court considers that this obligation must be construed as applying in the context of any activity, whether public or not, in which the right to life may be at stake, and a fortiori in the case of industrial activities, which by their very nature are dangerous, such as the operation of waste-collection sites.

[39] Mu gusobanura nanone icyo ijambo ubuzima rishatse kuvuga, mu rubanza rwaciwe n’Urukiko rw’Ikirenga rw’Ubuhinde haburana uwitwa Francis Coralie Mullin vs The Administrator, Union Territory of Dheli and others on 13 January, 1981,12 rushingiye ku ngingo ya 21 y’Itegeko Nshinga ry’Ubuhinde, iteganya ko ntawe ushobora kwamburwa ubuzima bwe n’ukwishyira ukizana kwe uretse mu gihe byaba bikozwe mu buryo buteganyijwe n’amategeko (No person shall be deprived of his life or personal liberty except according to procedure established by law), rwasobanuye ko ijambo ubuzima rikwiye kumvikana nk’ikintu kirenze kubaho bisanzwe, ko kuvutsa umuntu ubuzima bigera no kumubangamira mu buryo bwose bwatuma yisanzura mu mibereho ye. Rwasobanuye ko itegeko ribuza konona umubiri uwukuraho kimwe mu bice biwugize ari nabyo bituma umuntu abaho agashobora kubana n’abandi. [40] Mu bisobanuro byatanzwe kandi n’Akanama k’Umuryango w’Abibumbye gashinzwe uburenganzira bwa muntu (Human Right Committee), ubwo kasobanuraga ingingo ya 6 y’Amasezerano mpuzamahanga mu by’imbonezamubano na politiki (International covenant on civil and political rights) yavuzwe haruguru ivuga ku burenganzira bwo kubaho, kasobanuye ko uburenganzira bwo kubaho ari ubutuma ntacyo umuntu yakwikanga cyamukururira urupfu rudasanzwe cyangwa rw’imburagihe, kandi akabaho yumva afite agaciro. Kavuze ko ingingo ya 6 iha ubwo burenganzira abantu bose nta vangura iryo ariryo ryose kugeza ndetse no ku bantu bakatiwe nyuma yo guhamwa n’ibyaha by’ubugome. Kabivuze muri aya magambo: the right to life is a right which should not be interpreted narrowly. It concerns the entitlement of individuals to be free from acts and omissions that are intended or may be expected to cause their unnatural or premature death, as well as to enjoy a life with dignity. Article 6 guarantees this right for all human beings, without distinction of any kind, including for persons suspected or convicted of even the most serious crimes.13 [41] Nanone mu gusobanura icyo uburenganzira bwo kubaho bishatse kuvuga, Komisiyo Nyafurika y’uburenganzira bwa Muntu n’ubw’Abaturage, ubwo yatangaga ibisobanuro ku ngingo ya 4 y’Amasezerano Nyafurika ku burenganzira bwa Muntu n’ubw’Abaturage14, yavuze ko ubwo burenganzira bugomba kumvikana mu buryo bugari, aho Leta ifite inshingano zo kurinda abaturage bayo ku buryo ntacyahungabanya ubuzima bwabo bitewe n’ibikorwa by’abandi bantu cyangwa se kutagira igikorwa mu gihe bugarijwe n’akaga.

The Administrator, Union Territory of Delhi & ORS, P. 12. By the term life as here used something more is meant than mere animal existence. The inhibition against its deprivation extends to all those limbs and faculties by which life is enjoyed. The provision equally prohibits the mutilation of the body or amputation of an arm or leg or the putting out of an eye or the destruction of any other organ of the body through which the soul communicates with the outer world.

Mu rwego rwo kurinda ubwo burenganzira nk’uko Akanama k’Umuryango w’Abibumbye gashinzwe uburenganzira bwa Muntu kabitanzeho icyifuzo16, mu Itegeko Nº 68/2018 ryo ku wa 30/08/2018 riteganya ibyaha n’ibihano muri rusange, hateganyijwemo ingingo ibuza kuba umuntu yakwambura undi ubuzima, aho yateganyije igihano kiremereye ku wabikora.17 Umushingamategeko yashatse kurengera ubwo burenganzira nanone ashyira muri iryo tegeko ingingo zibuza gukuramo inda18, kubera ko umwana wasamwe nawe aba afite uburenganzira mbonezamubano bwemererwa buri muntu19, gusa akaba yarashyizeho irengayobora yemera ko kuvanamo inda bishoboka mu bihe bivugwa mu ngingo ya 125, igika cya mbere, y’Itegeko N° 68/2018 ryo ku wa 30/08/2018 riteganya ibyaha n’ibihano muri rusange20, kandi nabwo bigakorwa n’abaganga babifitiye ubumenyi kandi bafite ibyangombwa byose nkenerwa kugira ngo bidashyira mu kaga ubuzima bw’ukeneye gukuramo inda ku buryo bwanahatakarira.

Basobanura ko mu Rwanda abaganga bakoresha uburyo bukurikira mu gukuramo inda: surgical method (evacuation dilation and curettage), oral and vaginal administration of harmonal medication n’ubwa manual vacuum aspiration (MVA). Bavuga ko uburyo bukunze gukoreshwa n’Ibitaro by’Uturere kimwe L’État a pour obligation positive de protéger les personnes et les groupes contre des risques réels et immédiats pour leur vie dus à l’action ou à l’inaction de tierces parties.

Ces actions comprennent, notamment, des mesures de prévention pour conserver et protéger l’environnement naturel et des interventions humanitaires en cas de catastrophes naturelles, de famines, des flambées de maladies infectieuses ou d’autres urgences. 16 Idem. §4. Paragraph 1 of article 6 of the Covenant provides that no one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his life and that the right shall be protected by law.

n’Ibitaro by ‘Icyitegererezo (district and referral hospitals) ari ubwa surgical method (evacuation dilation and curettage). Nyuma yo kubona ibibazo bivuka mu gukuramo inda, basaba ubuyobozi ko uburyo bwo kubikora byemewe n’amategeko bwanozwa, urugero hakemezwa ko muganga (medical doctor) ari we wenyine wemererwa kugena ko gukuramo inda bikorwa, kandi hakajyaho amabwiriza yerekana abakozi bo mu buvuzi bemerewe gutanga bene iyo serivisi n’ibigo by’ubuvuzi igomba gutangirwamo21. [44] Ku birebana n’uburyo bwa surgical method nka bumwe mu bukunze gukoreshwa mu Rwanda nk’uko bimaze kugaragazwa haruguru, Umuryango mpuzamahanga wita ku buzima (WHO), mu nyandiko yitwa safe abortion: technical and policy guidance for health system, uvuga ko ari uburyo bubabaza cyane, ugatanga inama ko aho ubwo buryo bwaba bugikoreshwa hakorwa ibishoboka byose bugasimbuzwa ubwa manual vacuum aspiration mu rwego rwo kunoza uburyo abagore bakenera iyo serivisi bitabwaho, ko aho ubwo buryo butarashoboka, surgical method yakorwa n’abakozi babihuguriwe bihagije kandi bakagenzurwa neza22. Naho Patrick Adams mu nyandiko ye yitwa in Hospital across Africa, A Lack of post-abortion care, avuga ko ubushakashatsi bwagaragaje ko uburyo bwa dilation and curetage aribwo bufite ingaruka nyinshi, budatanga umusaruro kandi bubabaza ugereranyije n’uburyo bwa manual vacuum aspiration, ikindi kandi kuba busaba ko bukoreshwa n’umuganga ufite uburyo ashobora guhita abaga umugore cyangwa umukobwa wakuyemo inda bibaye ngombwa, burahenze cyane23.

Violations of the obligation to fulfill occur through the failure of states to take all necessary steps to ensure the realization of the right to health.

[60] Uhagarariye Leta y’u Rwanda avuga ko kuri iyi ngingo, bigaragara ko Leta yahisemo ko ufite ubushobozi bwo gufasha umugore wifuza gukuramo inda ari umuganga (medical doctor) ufite ubumenyi bwemewe n’inzego zibifitiye ububasha. Ibi bivuze ko utari umuganga adashobora gutanga iyo serivisi kubera ingaruka z’ubuzima zishobora gukomoka mu gukurwamo inda mu gihe bikozwe n’undi muntu utari umuganga. Ibyo bikanashimangirwa ni uko mu ngingo ya 4 n’iya 7 z’Iteka rya Minisitiri N° 002/MoH/2019 ryo ku wa 08/04/2019 rigena ibigomba kubahirizwa kugira ngo muganga akuriremo umuntu inda hateganyijwe ko usaba gukurirwamo inda agomba kubanza gusuzumwa ko ari muzima mu buryo bwimbitse, kandi ko iyo nda igomba kuba itarengeje ibyumweru makumyabiri na bibiri (22) ndetse akabanza kugirwa inama ku ngaruka zo gukuramo inda.

UKO URUKIKO RUBIBONA [63] Ingingo ya 14 y’Itegeko Nshinga iteganya ko umuntu wese afite uburenganzira bwo kudahungabanywa ku mubiri no mu mutwe. Ntawe ushobora kwicwa urubozo, gukorerwa ibibabaza umubiri cyangwa ngo akorerwe ibikorwa by’ubugome, ibikorwa bidakwiye umuntu cyangwa bimutesha agaciro. Ntawe ushobora gukorerwaho igerageza atabyiyemereye. Uburyo bwo kubyemera kimwe n’ubw’iryo gerageza bugenwa n’itegeko. Ubu burenganzira tubusanga kandi no mu masezerano mpuzamahanga atandukanye harimo Itangazo mpuzamahanga ryerekeye uburenganzira bwa Muntu (Universal Declaration of Human Rights)36, Amasezerano mpuzamahanga mu by’imbonezamubano na politiki (International covenant on civil and political rights)37, Amasezerano y’Umuryango w’Ubumwe bw’Ibihugu bw’Uburayi (The Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union)38, Amasezerano nyafurika y’uburenganzira bwa Muntu n’ubw’Abaturage (African charter on human and people’s rights)39. [64] Ingingo ya 14 y’Itegeko Nshinga igaragaramo ibice bitatu by’ingenzi bikurikira: - Kuba ntawe ugomba guhungabanywa ku mubiri no mu mutwe. - Kuba ntawe ushobora kwicwa urubozo, gukorerwa ibibabaza umubiri cyangwa ngo akorerwe ibikorwa by’ubugome, ibikorwa bidakwiye umuntu cyangwa bimutesha agaciro. - Kuba ntawe ushobora gukorerwaho igerageza atabyiyemereye. [65] Ku birebana n’igice cya mbere, Akanama k’Umuryango w’Abibumbye gashinzwe uburenganzira bwa Muntu (Human Rights Committee), ubwo kasobanuraga ingingo ya 7 y’Amasezerano mpuzamahanga mu by’imbonezamubano na politiki yavuzwe haruguru, kavuze ko intego y’iyo ngingo ari ukurinda agaciro umuntu afite, haba ku mubiri cyangwa mu mutwe, ko ibihugu byose bitegetswe gushyiraho amategeko no gufata ibindi byemezo bya ngombwa mu rwego rwo gukumira ibikorwa bibujijwe mu ngingo ya 7, byaba bikozwe n’umuntu igihe ari mu kazi, yaba atari mu kazi cyangwa se bikozwe n’umuntu ku giti cye. Kavuze ko n’uwakwamburwa uburenganzira agomba gukomeza gufatwa mu buryo bumuhesheje icyubahiro gikwiye ikiremwamuntu. Kabivuze muri aya magambo:” The aim of the provisions of article 7 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights is to protect both the dignity and the physical and mental integrity of the individual. It is the duty of the State party to afford everyone protection through legislative and other measures as 36 Article 5 states: no one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. 37 Article 7 reads: no one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. In particular, no one shall be subjected without his free consent to medical or scientific experimentation. 38 The article 3 of the Charter reads: 1. Everyone has the right to respect for his or her physical and mental integrity. 2. In the fields of medicine and biology, the following must be respected in particular: the free and informed consent of the person concerned, according to the procedures laid down by law, the prohibition of eugenic practices, in particular those aiming at the selection of persons, the prohibition on making the human body and its parts as such a source of financial gain, the prohibition of the reproductive cloning of human beings. 39 Article 5 of the Charter reads: every individual shall have the rhight to the respect of the dignity inherent in a human being and to the recognition of his legal status. All forms of exploitation and degradation of man particularly slavery, slave trade, torture, cruel, inhuman and degradating punishment and treatment shall be prohibited.

may be necessary against the acts prohibited by article 7, whether inflicted by people acting in their official capacity, outside their official capacity or in a private capacity. The prohibition in article 7 is complemented by the positive requirements of article 10, paragraph 1, of the Covenant, which stipulates that “All persons deprived of their liberty shall be treated with humanity and with respect for the inherent dignity of the human person”.40 [66] Ku birebana n’igice cya kabiri, ako Kanama kasobanuye ko ibiteganyijwe mu ngingo ya 7 y’Amasezerano yavuzwe haruguru bitagarukira ku bikorwa bibabaza umubiri gusa, ko ahubwo n’ibitesha ubwenge birebwa n’iyo ngingo. Ku bw’ako Kanama, ibibujijwe muri iyo ngingo biragenda bikagera no ku bihano by’umubiri ku muntu wakoze icyaha cyangwa bigamije gukosora. Kavuga ko by’umwihariko ari ngombwa gushimangira ko ingingo ya 7 irengera abana, abanyeshuri n’abarwayi bari mu mavuriro. Ako Kanama kabivuze muri aya magambo:” The prohibition in article 7 relates not only to acts that cause physical pain but also to acts that cause mental suffering to the victim. In the Committee’s view, moreover, the prohibition must extend to corporal punishment, including excessive chastisement ordered as punishment for a crime or as an educative or disciplinary measure.

Kabivuze muri aya magambo:” Article 7 expressly prohibits medical or scientific experimentation without the free consent of the person concerned. The Committee notes that the reports of States parties generally contain little information on this point. More attention should be given to the need and means to ensure observance of this provision. The Committee also observes that special protection in regard to such experiments is necessary in the case of persons not capable of giving valid consent, and in particular those under any form of detention or imprisonment. Such persons should not be subjected to any medical or scientific experimentation that may be detrimental to their health.42 [68] Mu rwego rwo kurinda ubwo uburenganzira bwo kudahungabanywa ku mubiri no mu mutwe nk’uko Akanama k’Umuryango w’Abibumbye gashinzwe uburengazira bwa Muntu kabitanzeho 40 CCPR General Comment No. 20: Article 7 (Prohibition of Torture, or Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment) Adopted at the Forty-fourth Session of the Human Rights Committee, on 10 March 1992. §2. https://uniteforreprorights.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/453883fb0.pdf consulté le 1/12/2021. 41 Idem, § 5. 42 Idem, § 7.

[94] Ku birebana n’icyo uburenganzira ku buzima bwite bw’umuntu aricyo, mu rubanza Bărbulescu v.

Rwabivuze muri aya magambo:” Privacy, in its simplest sense, allows each human being to be left alone in a core which is inviolable. Yet the autonomy of the individual is conditioned by her relationships with the rest of society. Those relationships may and do often pose questions to autonomy and free choice…”. 59 Article 17 of the Covenant reads: 1. no one shall be subjected to arbitrary or unlawful interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to unlawful attacks on his honour and reputation. 2. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks. 60 Article 8 of the Convention reads: 1. everyone has the right to respect for his private and family life, his home and his correspondence. 2. There shall be no interference by a public authority with the exercise of this right except such as is in accordance with the law and is necessary in a democratic society in the interests of national security, public safety or the economic well-being of the country, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, or for the protection of the rights and freedoms of others. 61 Case of Bărbulescu v. Romania, Application no. 61496/08, § 71. The Court considers that the notion of private life may include professional activities, or activities taking place in a public context. Restrictions on an individual’s professional life may fall within Article 8 where they have repercussions on the manner in which he or she constructs his or her social identity by developing relationships with others. It should be noted in this connection that it is in the course of their working lives that the majority of people have a significant, if not the greatest, opportunity to develop relationships with the outside world. https://hudoc.echr.coe.int/spa?i=001-177082. 62 Writ Petition (Civil) n° 494 of 2012, §2. https://indiankanoon.org/doc/127517806.

Icyo gisobanuro bakaba baragitanze bifashishije imanza zinyuranye zaciwe n’urwo Rukiko. [96] Akanama k’Umuryango w’Abibumbye gashinzwe uburenganzira bwa Muntu (Human Rights Committee), ubwo kasobanuraga ingingo ya 17 y’Amasezerano mpuzamahanga mu by’imbonezamubano na politiki yavuzwe haruguru, kavuze ko iyo ngingo iha buri muntu uburenganzira bwo kuba ntawemerewe kwivanga mu buzima bwe bwite, mu muryango we no mu rugo rwe cyangwa mu butumwa yohererezanya n’abandi no kumutesha agaciro mu buryo bunyuranyije n’amategeko. Kavuze ko mu myumvire yako, ubwo burenganzira bugomba kurindwa ku buryo ntawabuhungabanya, byakorwa n’inzego za Leta cyangwa undi wese. Za Leta zasabwe gushyiraho amategeko no gufata izindi ngamba zose mu rwego rwo kurengera ubwo burenganzira. Kabivuze muri aya magambo:” Article 17 provides for the right of every person to be protected against arbitrary or unlawful interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence as well as against unlawful attacks on his honour and reputation. In the view of the Committee, this right is required to be guaranteed against all such interferences and attacks whether they emanate from State authorities or from natural or legal persons. The obligations imposed by this article require the State to adopt legislative and other measures to give effect to the prohibition against such interferences and attacks as well as to the protection of this right.”64 [97] Mu rwego rwo kurinda uburenganzira ku mibereho bwite y’abantu nk’uko iyo ngingo ibisaba, mu Itegeko Nº 68/2018 ryo ku wa 30/08/2018 riteganya ibyaha n’ibihano muri rusange, hashyizwemo 63 Division De La Recherche Research Division Internet: Case-law of the European Court of Human Rights, Updated: June 2015, p. 8. Private life includes the privacy of communications, which covers the security and privacy of mail, telephone, e- mail and other forms of communication; and informational privacy, including online information (Copland v. the United Kingdom, no. 62617/00, ECHR 2007-I). The concept of private life moreover includes elements relating to a person’s right to their image (Sciacca v. Italy, no. 50774/99, § 29, ECHR 2005-I). In other words, photographs or videos which contain a person’s image will fall within the scope of Article 8. In fact, the right to the protection of one’s image presupposes the individual’s right to control the use of that image, including the right to refuse publication thereof (Von Hannover v. Germany (no. 2) [GC], nos. 40660/08 and 60641/08, § 96, ECHR 2012). This is relevant for the storing of images on communal or social websites. This is an area where the protection of the reputation and the rights of others takes on a special importance, as photos may contain highly personal or even private information about an individual or his or her family. The Verlagsgruppe News GmbH and Bobi v. Austria case (no. 59631/09, 4 December 2012) is interesting in this connection. Photos were taken in the course of a private event in the applicant’s apartment. They were taken with his agreement but were not meant for the eyes of outsiders (§ 86). They concerned his private life and were not essential to the offending article, so the claimant’s interest in the protection of his image prevailed (§§ 89-90). https://www.echr.coe.int/documents/research_report_internet_eng.pdf.
