Serikali ya Tanzania imeshindwa kumwajibisha mtu yeyote kwa ukatili uliofanywa na majeshi ya usalama dhidi ya waandamanaji, ambao ulisababisha mauaji ya mamia ya watu na maelfu wengine kujeruhiwa kufuatia uchaguzi mkuu wa mwaka 2025.

“Serikali lazima isitishe matumizi mabaya ya sheria za kupambana na ugaidi kuzuia uhuru wa kujieleza na kukusanyika kwa amani...
@amnesty iliorodhesha matukio mbalimbali ya watu binafsi kutekwa na watu waliodhaniwa kuwa maafisa wa usalama wa taifa, kutiwa nguvuni bila ya kuruhusiwa kuwa na mawasiliano na mtu yeyote, na baadaye kufunguliwa mashtaka mahakamani. Baadhi yao bado hawajulikani walipo.
...Lazima ifute mara moja na bila masharti yoyote mashtaka yote ya ugaidi dhidi ya wale waliokamatwa pasipo haki na kukomesha unyanyasaji dhidi ya watu binafsi kwa sababu tu ya kutumia haki zao za kibinadamu kwa amani.”
