Imagine. A politician, or a judge, cannot travel freely in his or her own country! They cannot even hold a protest or a public event of any kind without being harassed by the powers that be.

“It is a total violation of my fundamental rights guaranteed in the constitution,” he said after leading a demonstration in the capital against the visit of US Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte.
