The GCTF Criminal Justice and the Rule of Law Working Group (CJ-RoL WG), co-chaired by Italy and Nigeria, with the support of the International Institute for Justice and the Rule of Law (IIJ) — within the framework of the EU-funded CT PHARE project — launched a survey on the application of the non-binding recommended good practices set out in the GCTF’s Hague Memorandum Good Practice 5 on supporting the right of the accused to a fair trial with adequate legal representation and Rabat Memorandum Good Practice 7 on providing for lawful exercise of pre-trial detention of terrorist suspects.


This Report shares the findings on how the right to a fair trial for defendants in terrorism-related cases is applied worldwide. It is also available in Arabic and French
