Manuel María Mercedes, president of the entity, said the data in the Technical Commission’s report on International Human Rights Day, “will leave the Government very badly in terms of human rights,”

Interviewed on CDN Channel 37, Mercedes said the country has suffered a setback “in all aspects of the word.”
