1/3 #Syria| I'm alarmed by Syria's new Interior Ministry Circular requiring prior authorisation for assemblies. This framework risks making spontaneous protests unlawful and turning a fundamental right into a government-granted privilege. #HumanRights #FreedomOfAssembly

Christians have gathered in house churches for nearly 2,000 years — to sing, pray, study Scripture, and worship together.
My own church has a midweek home gathering of about 20 people. This is utterly normal across the world.
Yet somehow, when Jews gather to worship, suddenly neighbours discover “zoning concerns” and “community disruption.”
Funny how freedom of assembly becomes controversial only when the people assembling are Jewish.
Troubling doesn’t begin to cover it.

🚨Amnesty International has called it out: Pakistan’s brutal crackdown on peaceful protests in PoK is unacceptable.
Designating the grassroots JKJAAC as a “terrorist” group, shutting down the internet, and deploying paramilitary forces against citizens demanding their rights is a massive violation of human rights and freedom of association.
The tragic loss of life, including activist Shahzeb Habib and multiple protesters, demands immediate, independent investigations.
Pakistan must end this unlawful ban, stop the violence, and respect the voices of the people in their illegally occupied territory of Jammu & Kashmir.
The world is watching. 👀

2/3 Together with other UN experts, I sent a formal communication to India urging his immediate release. The charges against him, including under the UAPA, criminalize the legitimate exercise of freedoms of expression, assembly and association. #FreedomOfAssembly #CivicSpace

Correct.
One involves exercising the constitutional rights to #FreedomOfSpeech and #FreedomOfAssembly that are essential to holding those in power accountable to the people.
The other involves those in power inconvencing ordinary members of the public for their own convenience.

Master of Massacres Asim Munir once again showed his fascist power against human rights and murdered hundreds of civilians in Rawlakot by straight firing on a gathering demanding their legal rights. @UNHumanRights @FCDOGovUK

The Africa Judges and Jurists Forum (AJJF) expresses deep concern over the arrest of former Chief Justice of Kenya, Hon. David Maraga, and fellow environmental activists during a peaceful protest in defence of Nairobi National Park.
Peaceful assembly and protest are fundamental constitutional rights and must be protected. AJJF calls for respect for the rule of law, due process, environmental justice, and the immediate release of all protesters detained for exercising their lawful rights.
As a member of AJJF’s Judicial Elders Council, Hon. Maraga’s solidarity with fellow protesters reflects a principled commitment to justice, accountability, and constitutional values.

2/3 Together with other UN experts, I formally communicated our grave concern to Thailand. Convicting a woman human rights defender for quoting the UN in a peaceful assembly is not the application of law, it is its weaponisation. #FreedomOfAssembly #WomenHRDs #Thailand

89 Awami League activists detained in just 24 hours.
Is this the "democracy" we were promised? Arresting opposition activists while preaching democratic values is the height of hypocrisy.
The international community must take notice of the growing political repression in Bangladesh and demand accountability.

Urgent Appeal – Rawalakot, Pakistan-administered Kashmir
Disturbing reports from Rawalakot indicate that civilians were injured and killed during overnight violence. While casualty figures remain unverified, eyewitnesses describe scenes of chaos, allegations of live fire, raids on homes, and damage to property.
Residents are calling on international human rights organizations, independent media, and global observers to closely monitor the situation and help ensure the protection of civilians.
