Is #corruption and forced #bribery also a problem where you live?
Do public officials or local leaders ever demand bribes before helping people access services or get things done?
WHY #UGANDA ?

Mehdi Shafakhah, attivista che da anni sostiene i bambini lavoratori e promuove l’istruzione nelle comunità più svantaggiate, è stato condannato dal Tribunale Rivoluzionario di Teheran a 2 anni e 3 mesi di carcere. Le accuse includono «propaganda contro lo Stato» e «insulto alla Guida Suprema». Arrestato il 12 maggio 2026, era stato rilasciato su cauzione a giugno dopo gli interrogatori.

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@AmmarSpaces/116323351434977384
It's been a while I talked about Andri Yunus case, but... let's just say, we got more bullshit to handle.
The main intelectual of this case, never apprehended.
And the executor, they appealed, and of course, it was granted. They received a reduced sentence and were not dismissed from their military service. The military court is very efficient, isn't it?
You can just search up "Andrie Yunus" on your social media for source. I am too tired with world bs.

La Missione ONU sull’Iran chiede al governo iraniano di ritirare il disegno di legge sulla «lotta all’infiltrazione straniera», che potrebbe prevedere fino a 30 anni di carcere per giornalisti, accademici e attivisti che comunichino con persone o organizzazioni straniere. Il provvedimento potrebbe criminalizzare anche attività accademiche, culturali, artistiche e giornalistiche.

“Terrorizing Our City”: #ICE Targets Immigrants in #DanburyCT , Including at School #BusStops
#DemocracyNow
September 04, 2026"We go to Danbury, #Connecticut, where residents held a mass #demonstration this week to protest recent immigration arrests and to support the city’s #immigrant community. Danbury, like many other communities across the United States, has been the target of a spike in immigration enforcement under the Trump administration, including local reports of ICE arresting parents at school bus stops.
" 'We really have been describing it as the administration terrorizing our city, because that is what it felt like. The streets were empty. Kids stayed home from practice. Kids stayed home from school,' says Juliana Soares, the lead organizer for Danbury Unites for Immigrants. 'Masked agents often would shut down the street to just abduct people. … They just do a gross display of force and intimidation in a grocery store parking lot, where they’re just walking around, kind of hunting their next target.'

Supporters rally for #ProPalestinian #protesters arrested in #PortlandME
Aysia Reed,WGME
Thu, July 10th 2025PORTLAND, Maine (WGME) -- "The #MaineCoalitionForPalestine held a rally on Thursday outside of the Cumberland County Courthouse ahead of the criminal court arraignment of pro-Palestinian protesters who were arrested in Portland in May.
"Twenty protesters, ages 22 through 87, were arrested in May for blocking Commercial Street.
"Ten of those protesters were arraigned on Thursday morning while the remaining 10 will be arraigned later this month.
"The Maine Coalition for Palestine says they were bringing attention to the #genocide in #Gaza.
"The protesters were charged with class E misdemeanors for obstructing a public way.
"One of the people taken away in handcuffs was #BobSchaible, who's in his 80s [87 to be exact].
"He says this was his first time being arrested and said he would do it all over again to inspire action to get humanitarian aid to Gaza.
" 'Congress has to take a stand. We want the Portland people, more of them, to know what is happening,' Schaible said.
"Maine Voices for Palestinian Rights Chair Abby Fuller helped organize the protest in May.
" 'We have written our congressional representatives, we've called them, we've held rallies in the streets, we've done all kinds of things -- everything we can think of. And our government has not changed its policy of support for Israel,' Fuller said.
"Fuller was also arrested and charged with obstructing a public way."

#ProPalestinian activists rally outside #PortlandME courthouse to support fellow #protesters
Morgan Womack, Portland Press Herald, Maine
Thu, July 10, 2025Jul. 10—"A group of pro-Palestinian demonstrators gathered outside the #CumberlandCountyCourthouse on Thursday morning ahead of a court hearing for their peers who were arrested at a protest in May.
"More than a dozen people rallied with signs and a #PalestinianFlag as 10 people — half of the group that was previously arrested — awaited their arraignments. During their hearings, they each pleaded not guilty to one count of #obstructing a public way. The rest of the group will appear in court at a later date, the protesters said.
"Jamila Levasseur, 70, of #WaldoME, was one of the 20 people arrested in Portland on May 21 after police accused them of blocking the intersection of Commercial and Pearl streets near the U.S. Custom House. She said at the time that she'd be arrested as many times as necessary to bring attention to the widespread #starvation and ongoing #Israeli airstrikes in #Gaza.
"When appearing at the stand, Levasseur told District Court Judge Jed French that she was 'protesting against #genocide in #Gaza' before entering her not-guilty plea. She referenced Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu's recent talks with President Donald #Trump, recognizing their joint strikes on #Iran and discussing plans for a 60-day #ceasefire that would halt Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza.
" 'Those are the #WarCriminals,' Levasseur said. 'We're not criminals.'
"Levasseur said she couldn't have anticipated that the war would still be going on 21 months after it began. She said she's thankful that a group of attorneys stepped forward to represent the protesters for free, and that the May demonstration in the Old Port attracted a new, larger crowd of supporters.
" 'More and more people are waking up, learning what's going on, horrified, and want to do something,' Levasseur said. 'The people we were arrested with, I didn't even know them all when we were arrested. ... It's not the usual suspects. It's just more ordinary people.'
"Levasseur and #AbigailFuller, 65, of Portland, were also arrested at a February 2024 protest on Franklin Street for obstructing a public way. Their charges in those cases have since been dropped.
"Fuller, who is also a lecturer at the University of Southern Maine, said she felt supported by the group of people outside the courthouse while walking into her arraignment. She pleaded not guilty and also told the judge she was protesting genocide when she was arrested.
" 'It feels good to be starting the process,' Fuller said. 'The Maine courts system takes a really long time, often, to get through, but this is the first step.'
"Fuller said she appreciates seeing new faces at protests, especially as airstrikes and shootings in the #GazaStrip continue, killing people attempting to receive #HumanitarianAid.
" 'Unfortunately, Palestinian deaths are not on the front pages of the newspaper anymore,' Fuller said. 'So, we're trying to keep that in the public eye.' "
