Amnesty International and Aug 17th Protests

Amnesty International is urging the authorities to allow peaceful protests to take place without fear of violent reprisals, arbitrary arrests or intimidation by security forces and that any use of force is proportionate. It is also calling for immediate, impartial and thorough investigations into police conduct during the 20 July protests, in which 18 people were killed and scores injured after police fired live ammunition at the demonstrators
