Desde febrero de 2003, tras el inicio de un conflicto armado en la región de Darfur del Sudán, miembros de la milicia llamada Janjaweed se dieron a la tarea de desalojar por la fuerza, matar y violar a miles de indígenas negros de la región. Los peticionantes adujeron que tales actos constituían la omisión del gobierno de Sudán de respetar y proteger los derechos del pueblo de Darfur y, en particular, violaban los artículos 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12 (1), 14, 16, 18 (1) y 22 de la Carta Africana de Derechos Humanos y de los Pueblos.

Since February 2003, following the emergence of an armed conflict in the Darfur region of the Sudan, militiamen known as Janjaweed have engaged in forcibly evicting, killing, and raping thousands of Black indigenous people in that region.  The complainants alleged these acts were a failure of the government of Sudan to respect and protect the rights of the people of Darfur and in particular violated articles 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12 (1), 14, 16, 18 (1) and 22 of the African Charter on Human and People's Rights.  In affirming admissibility of the complaint, the Commission quoted its decisi

Al pueblo indígena Endorois se le había prometido compensación y beneficios que nunca se concretaron en su totalidad, y el acceso de la comunidad a la tierra quedó limitado a la discreción de la Autoridad de la Reserva de Caza.

En este caso, la South Fork Band y otras comunidades de Western Shoshone habían apelado una decisión de un tribunal inferior que les negaba una medida cautelar[1] contra la construcción de la mina de oro.

In this case, the South Fork Band and other Western Shoshone tribes were appealing a lower court decision denying an injunction[1] against the construction of the gold mine. In their appeal to the Court, the South Fork Band argued that an injunction should be granted against Barrick Cortez because the U.S.

In the 1970s, the Kenyan government evicted hundreds of Endorois families from their land around the Lake Bogoria area in the Rift Valley to create a game reserve for tourism.  The Endorois, an indigenous people, had been promised compensation and benefits, but these were never fully implemented, and the community's access to the land was restricted to the discretion of the Game Reserve Authority. This prevented the community from practicing their pastoralist way of life, using ceremonial and religious sites, and accessing traditional medicines.
