Evidence standard

This website separates verified evidence, partly verified reports and unverified public claims. Every serious claim should link to a source, document, map, article or official record.

The court and law PDFs are the primary records. NGO and media articles are useful context and are labelled as analysis or reporting, not official legal proof by themselves.

Evidence summaries

Each record below summarises what the document or source says, why it matters, and where readers can open the original document themselves.
