UN human rights experts have called on the Tanzanian government to launch a full investigation into recent killings reported in the country. The experts expressed concern over allegations of unlawful deaths linked to security operations. They noted that these claims must be addressed quickly to protect human rights and to maintain public trust. According to them, transparency and accountability are necessary for justice to be served.
The call from the UN comes at a time when the European Union and the United States are also urging President Samia Suluhu Hassan to act. Both international partners want Tanzania to look closely into the reported abuses and ensure that proper procedures are followed. They stressed that protecting citizens is a key responsibility of any government, and avoiding investigations only raises more suspicion. Their statements have added pressure on Tanzania’s leadership to respond.
Human rights groups within the region have also voiced their concerns. They say families of victims deserve clear answers about what happened and who is responsible. Activists are asking for independent investigators to be part of the probe to guarantee fairness. They believe that the investigation could help restore confidence in security institutions and reduce fears among local communities.
The Tanzanian government has not yet given a detailed response to the demands. However, observers believe the international pressure may push authorities to take action soon. Many citizens are now watching closely to see whether the government will open a fair and transparent inquiry. For many, justice and accountability remain the most important outcomes of any investigation that may follow.
