!! MUST READ !! The International organisation stated that there were no known examples of systematic prosecution of people that had left Eritrea illegally. This claim was corroborated by other sources, including a Western embassy in the country that stated, presently, there are no reports on returning deserters being imprisoned or otherwise severely punished. Additionally, a UN-agency in Eritrea doubted that evaders or deserters were actually imprisoned. Regarding the shoot-and-kill policy allegedly practiced at the border to Ethiopia it was stated that information on this might have been partly true in the past, but that people are no longer being shot at for crossing the border into Ethiopia, which do to its proximity, is used as a transit point by Eritrean migrants to get to their final destination of wealthy countries in the West. In regards to the Human Rights situation in the country, DIS found There are no mass violations of human rights in Eritrea, and compared the human rights situation and poverty levels in the country as being no worse than in most other African countries. madote/2014/11/fact-finding-mission-from-denmark-finds.html?showComment=1417129777003
