This edition covers the progress of the transitional justice bill in Nepal, Liberia’s commitment to provide reparation to victims of war crimes, and avenues for repurposing recovered funds of a Russian oligarch to victims of the conflict in Ukraine. [...] The forfeiture of these funds is a significant achievement for the NCA, highlighting the importance of sanctions enforcement in the UK’s efforts to uphold the integrity of its sanctions regime. [...] In August, REDRESS called on the UK Government to redirect the recovered £783,827 to support survivors of the conflict in Ukraine. [...] The money, currently set to be transferred to the UK’s Asset Recovery Incentivisation Scheme (ARIS), could be allocated for reparations through the discretionary powers of the Home Office and NCA. [...] While the current government commits to providing reparation to the victims of the conflict, it fails to adopt uniform policies.
