International Day in Support of Victims of Torture is being observed on Monday, to remind people that human torture is unacceptable and a crime.

The United Nations in 1997 declared June 26 as the International Day in Support of Victims of Torture.

In a message, UN Secretary-General António Guterres said torturers must never be allowed to get away with their crimes, and systems that enable torture should be dismantled or transformed”,
