IPHRC, in a statement issued in Jeddah on Jan 11, said it regretted the barbaric act and expressed solidarity with the bereaved families and the French nation for the tragic loss.
A total of 17 people were killed in three days of terror attacks in the French capital last week.
IPHRC also reiterated its strong rejection of radicalism, intolerance and terrorism in all forms and manifestations, and stressed the need to consolidate regional and international efforts to address and end such acts.
It also emphasised that responsible use of freedom of expression in accordance with international human rights law was fundamental for building peaceful and progressive democratic societies.
The commission warned that such acts must not lead to stereotyping, discrimination and hatred as it would exactly serve the purpose of the extremists on both sides which was to sow the seeds of hatred between people, cultures, religions and societies.
The IPHRC was formally established in June 2011 and held its first session in January 2012.
The commission consists of 18 experts, of whom six are from the Arab member states, six from the Asian member states and six from the African member states.
