Speakers at the meeting declared that the authorities' enaction of a special law allowing police and army to ban rallies and demonstrations as they please under the pretext of ensuring an international meeting indicates that the human rights abuses have gone beyond the tolerance limit.

Accusing the tyrannical forces of creating a terror-ridden atmosphere such as suspecting people and indiscriminately putting them in custody, they stated that they would stage dynamic actions to foil the repressive campaign of the authorities.
