The United Nation has released a report criticising the human rights situation in Ukraine, saying there is evidence that the people in Crimea were harrassed and arbitrarily arrested, before the referendum last month.  

The report also documents incidents of torture and ill-treatment of protesters during rallies, which led to the unseating of President Yanukovish last year.
