The Latter from Balderas Regarding the safety of Eskinder Nega

Regarding the safety of Eskinder Nega, the 2013 Addis Ababa City Council candidate!

It is known that Eskinder Nega, the leader of Balderas for true democracy and the 2013 Addis Ababa City Council candidate, is in your prison. It is known that this party leader has recently been nominated by the Supreme Court for the 2013 Cassation Hearing. 

However, candidate Eskinder Nega has repeatedly stated that his life, psychology, and health are currently in danger.

Since Eskinder Nega, is a popular candidate and a high-ranking political leader, we would like to ask that the prison administration Consider, and be held accountable for any physical or psychological harm caused to him.

In this regard, we strongly urge that both candidates be addressed as a matter of urgency, as Ms. Keleb Seyoum is also expressing serious security concerns. 

We also request that the institutions we have notified of the problem be aware of the situation and take appropriate action.

With Best Regards.
