The arrangement regarding the transfer of detainees from the Canadian Forces in Afghanistan to Afghan authorities recognises a right of visit to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), and provides for notification of the transfer of detainees by the Canadian Forces. The ICRC is mandated to visit detainees and monitor their conditions of detention during an armed conflict. To date, the ICRC has not notified Canada of any abuse or other mistreatment of any of the individuals who have been transferred to other national authorities.
