"The Ethiopian authorities over the past year have waged a relentless assault against human rights groups".
"The suspensions came a few weeks after the government’s civil society authority had suspended three other prominent rights groups: the Center for the Advancement of Rights and Democracy (CARD), Lawyers for Human Rights (LHR), and the Association for Human Rights in Ethiopia (AHRE). The authorities temporarily lifted the suspension of CARD and LHR on December 11, but reinstated it on December 17. The government alleged that the two organizations did not “learn from past mistakes” and had not taken corrective measures after receiving a warning. The ban on AHRE was not reinstated."
