  • Remark: Mr. Hadush, a Tigrayan businessman, was a victim of the illegal mass detentions of ethnic Tigrayans in and around Addis Ababa. On November 19, 2021, he was arrested from his home in Addis Ababa solely based on his Tigrayan ethnicity and without any criminal charges. Mr. Hadush was detained in the Kaliti concentration camp along with hundreds of other Tigrayans until he was shot and killed by Ethiopian security agents on December 4, 2021. His family members were denied permission to take his body home and give him a proper burial. They were informed by the Addis Ababa city administration that Hadush was buried at Kechene Medhanealem Church (ቀጨኔ መድሃኒኣለም).
