In the draft resolution, paragraph 2, after the second sentence, insert the following sentence:
"UNM has reported that several thousand of its activists and supporters were regularly interrogated and intimidated by various investigative agencies (some up to 30 times). A number of major opposition figures, including members of parliament, were violently attacked."
Explanatory Note :
This amendment mirrors numerous concerns raised by the main opposition party, that its supporters were subjected to intimidation by the law enforcement institutions. These reports are confirmed by local NGOs, including ISFED, GYLA and Transparency International. Reflection of opposition concerns is a standard objective of similar resolutions.
