The United States Government's 2022 Human Rights report has documented significant human rights issues in Liberia, citing credible reports.
Additionally, it detailed crimes involving violence or threats of violence targeting lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex persons, and the existence and enforcement of laws criminalizing consensual same-sex sexual conduct between adults. Following an investigation, it said, two LNP officers were formally stripped of duties pending further disciplinary action.
However, the Human Rights report indicated that there were no reports of disappearances by or on behalf of government authorities. The report detailed that on March 29, the Ministry of Justice dismissed four senior LNP officers - Deputy Commander Amos Williams, Inspector Otis Wallace, Sergeant George Wleh, and Humphrey Karhn - for allegedly beating civilians in Monrovia.
Further, it said Harper City Solicitor Thomas Togba Kun was arrested and charged for a May 6 sexual assault of a woman law client. His trial was pending at year's end.
