Seldonis IV Convention

The '''Seldonis IV Convention''', or simply the Seldonis Convention, was a [[treaty]] negotiated on [[Seldonis IV]] governing the treatment of [[prisoner of war|prisoners of war]]. Under this treaty, [[torture]] was expressly forbidden. Also, a person held by a treaty signatory could request the involvement of a designated "neutral representative" in their case. The [[United Federation of Planets]] and the [[Cardassian Empire]] were signatories of this treaty, although the Cardassian Empire was known to violate it on several occasions. 

In [[2369]], while undergoing torture at the hands of [[Gul]] [[Madred]], [[Jean-Luc Picard]] reminded the [[Cardassian]] of this fact, but the gul ignored him. ({{TNG|Chain of Command, Part II}})
