BURUNDI : Stany Mbazumutima (m), human rights defender
05 May 2006
Stany Mbazumutima is no longer suffering any intimidation by the police, according to an email he has sent to the International Secretariat.
A senior police officer had allegedly made three threatening phone calls to him in early April, after he wrote about Rwandan military spies operating in a refugee camp for people who have fled Rwanda, in the north of Burundi.
No further action is requested from the UA network. Many thanks to all who sent appeals.
