* Amnesty International considers that a "disappearance" has occured when there are reasonable grounds to believe that a person has been taken into custody by state agents, yet the authorities deny the victim is held, thus concealing the victim's whereabouts and fate and placing the victim outside the protection of the law. The word is placed in inverted commas by Amnesty International to indicate that it does not accept official explanations that these people have simply vanished.
Amnesty International only uses the term "disappearance" for cases which fit this definition and involve government forces. Amnesty International opposes "disappearances" in all cases.

Thank you very much for your kind words Mayane. It is fun, indeed, to read about the experiences of the hitch hikers. Of course it is a bit hard to do all: to hitch hike AND to talk to the press AND to sms AND to call AND to e-mail, but after the whole event I am sure everyone wants to write about how they have been received and how hard or easy things went.
