DEMOCRACY ALERTS/APPEALS
1. Asian Democracy Network Condemns Jailing of Sam Rainsy in Cambodia
On January 3, 2006, the Alliance for Reform and Democracy in Asia (ARDA) issued a statement denouncing the recent crackdown on the opposition and human rights activists in Cambodia, such as Kem Sokha and Yeng Virak. The Alliance expressed a concern over the break-down of the democratic system in the country. In this statement, ARDA calls on the Cambodian authorities to stop the persecution of human rights defenders. It also calls on the governments of ASEAN not turn a blind eye to the failings of its member states.
In its earlier statement, ARDA also condemned the recent 18-month sentence against Cambodia's opposition leader Sam Rainsy by the Phnom Penh Municipal Court. The sentence follows the lifting of parliamentary immunity on MPs Sam Rainsy, Chea Poch, and Cheam Channy in February of 2005. ARDA calls on the government to release Cheam Channy, revoke Sam Rainsy's 18-month sentence, and reinstate parliamentary immunity in Cambodia.

2. Support Freedom of Speech in Russia
The Center for Journalism in Extreme Situations (CJES) based in Russia recently issued a statement in support of Stanislav Dmitriyevsky, editor-in-chief of a local newspaper, Pravo-Zaschita, founded by the public association Nizhny Novgorod Human Rights Society. A criminal case against the journalist was opened in January 2005 based on the publication in Pravo-Zashchita of statements made by representatives of the elected inter-war government of Chechnya, Akhmed Zakayev and Aslan Maskhadov, which contained calls for a peaceful settlement of the Russian-Chechen conflict, criticism of the Russian government, army, and President Vladimir Putin. Human rights activists consider the charges to be politically motivated and designed to undermine the constitutional guarantees of freedom of speech. Dmitriyevsky's trial, which began in November, will resume on January 18. The CJES is collecting signatures for the statement issued on his behalf.
To sign the statement in support of the Stanislav Dmitriyevky, go to: www.cjes.ru/actions/action.php?p_id=1
3 Human Rights Watch Calls for Independent Investigation into Killings in Dongzhou, China
On December 15, 2005, Human Rights Watch (HRW) issued a call for an independent and transparent investigation into the December 6, 2005 killing of protestors in Dongzhou village in China. The incident in Guangdong province is the first known shooting of public protestors since the June 1989 massacre of democracy advocates in Tiananmen Square. The Dongzhou killings took place after a large crowd gathered to protest the arrest of villagers involved in negotiations over a poweplant. In an open letter circulated Tuesday, more than 50 Chinese intellectuals demanded an independent investigation. Human Rights Watch said it agreed with the authors of the letter and urged China to invite the United Nations or another independent body to investigate the killings immediately.

4. Human Rights Watch Calls on Thai Government to End the Use of "Blacklists"
On December 16, 2005, Human Rights Watch (HRW) issued a call for the Thai government to end its use of blacklists. According to HRW, the use of blacklists of suspected militants has created a climate of fear in Thailand. Those on the list, who are Muslim villagers, are required to surrender themselves voluntarily and undergo re-education programs. Under the July 2005 Emergency Decree, defying a summons can result in imprisonment. Since those summoned are not considered criminal suspects, they are denied the right to habeas corpus and access to legal council, and have no safeguards against torture. At the same time, the Emergency Decree grants immunity to the government and its officials from allegations of abuse.

5. Amendments to Belarusian Criminal Code Endanger Freedom of Expression
On December 16, 2005, CIVICUS, the World Alliance for Citizen Participation, and Belarusian human rights center Viasna, issued an alert on recent amendments to the Belarusian criminal code that will further endanger civil society's freedoms of association, expression, and assembly. The amendments, which came into force on December 20, 2005, impose jail terms of up to two years for anyone who facilitates or participates in group activities, works with unregistered organizations, appeals for assistance from foreign governments and organizations, or 'discredits' the Republic of Belarus in any way. CIVICUS and Viasna urge the government of Belarus to immediately repeal these new amendments.

ELECTIONS
16. Zimbabwe Election Group Reports Lowest Voter Turn-out Recorded Since 1980
In a press statement dated November 27, 2005, the Zimbabwe Election Support Network (ZESN) characterized the 2005 Senatorial elections in this country as having the lowest voter turn out since independence, with the average percentage of voter turn-out at less than 30 percent. The lowest poll prior to that was the 1996 presidential election, which recorded a 32.3 percent turn-out. According the ZESN, the low turn-out implies a protest vote by Zimbabweans against the status quo. They also cited other factors, such as a questioning of the role of the Senate and the importance of voting, dwindling interest in the integrity of the ballot, current economic hardships, and lack of adequate voter education and information

18. Study of UN Voting Pattern Shows Increase in Censure of Human Rights Violations
A new Democracy Coalition Project (DCP) survey shows a marked improvement in UN member states' willingness to adopt resolutions criticizing human rights violations in specific countries this year. The United Nations General Assembly's Third Committee approved six out of seven resolutions criticizing human rights violations and a seventh resolution was blocked from consideration by a motion to adjourn the debate, down from three resolutions blocked last year. Consistent support from new and old democracies from the Americas and Europe for resolutions that condemn the worst human rights violations, coupled with an increasing tendency by democracies in Africa and the Caribbean to abstain from voting against such resolutions, account for the improvement this year, the annual survey reveals.

19. Moroccan King Orders Public Release of Truth Commission Final Report
According to a report released by the International Center for Transitional Justice (ICTJ), on December 16, 2005, King Mohammad VI approved the publication and public release of the final report of the Moroccan Equity and Reconciliation Commission (IER). According to the summaries, the full report determines the responsibilities of state actors and other parties for abuses, and outlines an extensive reparations plan for victims and their families. While addressing the precise nature of past violations, the report also recommends concrete steps the Moroccan government and civil society can take to ensure non-repetition in the future, such as measures and reforms that strengthen the rule of law. The ICTJ assists countries pursuing accountability for past mass atrocity or human rights abuse. The Center works in societies emerging from repressive rule or armed conflict, as well as in established democracies where historical injustices or systematic abuse remain unresolved.
