“Sweden Discriminates Refugees without Documents”

United Nations Special Reporter on the right to health, Paul Hunt, has criticized Sweden for what he called a discrimination of refugees without documents.

Speaking at a hearing here in Stockholm, Hunt maintained that Sweden deliberately disadvantages refugees when it comes to health care.

Hunt said, refugees without identification documents should finally be given the same access to the heath care system as other people in this country.

If not, Sweden would continue to infringe upon the UN convention on human rights.
