translate English to French: Section 5 requires that where any person has been convicted of an act of torture, the Attorney-General must consider whether it would be appropriate in all the circumstances for the Crown to pay compensation to the person against whom the offence was committed or, if that person has died as a result of the offence, to that person's family.
Il dispose que lorsqu'une personne est reconnue coupable d'un acte de torture, le Procureur général doit déterminer s'il y a lieu, au vu de l'ensemble des circonstances, que la Couronne indemnise la personne victime de l'infraction ou, si l'intéressé est décédé du fait de l'infraction, les membres de sa famille.
