Paragraphe
Paragraph text
The Special Rapporteur warns against the detention of peaceful demonstrators, with a view to preventing their participation in assemblies which are critical of the Government or ruling party. He is similarly concerned about restriction orders prohibiting demonstrators and defenders monitoring assemblies from remaining in, entering, or passing through a city, as occurred, for instance, in Malaysia in July 2011.
