| Description: |
This Declaration guarantees to non-nationals ("aliens") a number of fundamental rights, such as life and security, privacy, fair treatment before tribunals, freedom of conscience and religion, peaceful assembly, and others. It proscribes torture and cruel punishment of non-nationals. It also expressly precludes the legitimization of the illegal entry of aliens into a State, and requires their observance of the laws of the State in which they are present. |
