  • Chapter
Internationales Handbuch der Gewaltforschung

Zusammenfassung

Die UN-Konvention gegen Folter und andere grausame, unmenschliche oder erniedrigende Behandlung oder Strafe definiert Folter wie folgt: „... jede Handlung, durch die einer Person vorsätzlich große körperliche oder seelische Schmerzen oder Leiden zugefügt werden, zum Beispiel um von ihr oder einem Dritten eine Aussage oder ein Geständnis zu erlangen, um sie für eine tatsächlich oder mutmaßlich von ihr oder einem Dritten begangene Tat zu bestrafen oder um sie oder einen Dritten einzuschüchtern oder zu nötigen, oder aus einem anderen, auf irgendeiner Art von Diskriminierung beruhenden Grund, wenn diese Schmerzen oder Leiden von einem Angehörigen des öffentlichen Dienstes oder einer anderen in amtlicher Eigenschaft handelnden Person, auf deren Veranlassung oder mit deren ausdrücklichem oder stillschweigendem Einverständnis verursacht werden. Der Ausdruck umfasst nicht Schmerzen oder Leiden, die sich lediglich aus gesetzlich zulässigen Sanktionen ergeben ...“ (zit. nach Tomuschat 1992).
