On 23 December 2011, the HRC held a Special Session during which it reviewed the human rights situation in Côte d'Ivoire following the proclamation of the results of the second round of the presidential elections on 28 November 2010. The political stalemate resulting from the elections has been characterized by the use of excessive force by supporters of Mr. Laurent Gbagbo, including elements of the security forces loyal to him, to repress public demonstrations, harassment and intimidation, incitement to ethnic and political violence, arbitrary arrest and detention, sexual violence, torture, enforced disappearances, and extrajudicial killings. Some acts of harassment, assault, destruction, of property and looting were reportedly committed by supporters of President Ouattara during and after the elections. Thousands of people were also forcefully displaced within the country inside Côte d'Ivoire and into neighboring countries.
