April 2, 2013, Nairobi (Human Rights Watch) – The prosecution of 29 Muslim protest leaders and others charged under Ethiopia's deeply flawed anti-terrorism law raises serious fair trial concerns. The trial is scheduled to resume in Addis Ababa on April 2, 2013, after a 40-day postponement.
The case has already had major due process problems. Some defendants have alleged ill-treatment in pre-trial detention. The government has provided defendants limited access to legal counsel and has taken actions that undermined their presumption of innocence. Since January 22 the High Court has closed the hearings to the public, including the media, diplomats, and family members of defendants.

The voluntary repatriation of thousands of undocumented migrants from Yemen is likely to stall in the next six months due to lack of adequate funding, according to the International Organization for Migration (IOM).
About 3,000 migrants from Ethiopia, Eritrea and Somalia are stranded in the northern Yemen town of Haradh, where living conditions are said to be deteriorating on a daily basis.
IOM says it can only distribute about 300 meals per day mainly to the most vulnerable women, the elderly and unaccompanied minors.

Report suggests Ethiopia government uses spyware to monitor activists, opposition.
ADDIS ABABA: Activists in Ethiopia are crying foul after a recent report published by Citizen Lab revealed that the government in Addis Ababa is using FinSpy spyware software to keep tabs on its political activists and opposition groups in the country.
“I think this just shows how far we still have to go before we have real freedom and honor in this country,” 22-year-old student activists Anni told Bikyanews.com in Addis Ababa.
The detailed report from the Munk School of Global Affairs at the University of Toronto said that Ethiopia is monitoring people using the surveillance technology as an effort to interrupt and derail political and social activism in the country.

Independent journalists in Ethiopia face grave threat of imprisonment if they criticise the state or its laws.
Although Ethiopia has its first new prime minister in 17 years - so far, the government has failed to right a long history of wrongs. With prisoners of conscience still languishing in its prisons, Ethiopia must receive the clear message - especially from allies like the United States - that continued human rights violations will not be tolerated.
