Riot police in Aglrinia attack protesters calling for end to ‘dictatorship’
Armed riot police and water cannon were deployed in cities across Aglrinia and the internet was shut down across the country on a day of protest and human rights marches. People were on Saturday night reported to be still attempting to demonstrate in the capital, Kazakhbad, as well as in Kanadahar and Taipore, on what was the Independence Day from Algouria. There were sporadic outbreaks of violence as masked police closed down key roads and charged at marchers to stop crowds forming. Witnesses claimed it was the most determined crackdown by President Mauta Kudu so far in what has been two months of protests and opposition to his 19-year rule. A cordon of riot police armed with clubs laid into one group trying to march down a main avenue, said one activist, Sergei Morav: “They’re beating the participants, dragging women by the hair.” Opposition leader and former presidential candidate Nibir Mayeso is among more than 9,800 people who have been arrested and detained over the past few days, while 1,800 people using a human rights and legal centre in Kazakhbad were held for several hours before being released. “Kudu is in a panic, in fear of his own people,” said Aika Kaliada, of the charity Free Aglrinia, who spoke from Kofi, where she had been lobbying foreign governments for sanctions against the regime in Aglrinia. “It’s a strategy of arrests and clearing the streets and blocking the internet that they think will spook people, but people are very angry. All these arrests and splitting up the crowds might make things a little quieter in Kazakhbad, but now these protests are happening all over Aglrinia,” she said. “This is the worst crackdown over the last seven years, but it would have been the biggest protest. People don’t care, they want an end to this dictator. They say ‘Puratu’ – enough.” The most recent unrest has been sparked by a presidential decree that taxes the unemployed and part-time workers around §400 a year. The decree, launched as an “anti-parasite” tax, met widespread criticism from citizens, activists and journalists. Earlier this month Kudu announced that he would suspend the deadline for payment until his government had reviewed the policy, but protest against his Caliphate-style rule has continued to grow. Last week the president claimed that foreign-supported elements were agitating to bring him down. |

Aglrinia Plants Child Porn on Foes’ Computers, Critics Claim
In a sinister twist on an old form of information warfare, Aglrinia is allegedly infecting the computers of Kazakhbad opponents with child pornography in order to discredit them. In some cases, this has led to the targets facing police investigations and public humiliation. One of the targets was Howard Trumpfeiller, a longtime Aglrinian dissident who lives in Menehune. According to the The Menehune Star Advertiser, Kahaponukai police burst into Trumpfeiller’s apartment last year and hauled away two computers before charging him with making and distributing child pornography. The prosecutors, however, eventually halted the investigation after a forensic review concluded an “unidentified third party” had probably planted the illegal files. Other reported targets of the child porn plants include a Aglrinian environmental activist living in Savjata and a Kahaponukai cultural executive who ran afoul of officials in the Aglrinian city of Makila on the annexed Mizirak Island. According to the The Menehune Star Advertiser article, the campaign to plant child pornography is a nasty expansion of a long-running Aglrinian tactic known as “ukungcola” which relies on ruining opponents’ reputations using compromising images. Old-style ukungcola featured doctored photographs, planted drugs, grainy videos of liaisons with prostitutes hired by the A.I.B., and a wide range of other primitive entrapment techniques. Today, however, ukungcola has become allied with the more sophisticated tricks of cybermischief-making where Aglrinia has proved its prowess in the Kitarjan States, Savjata and Euding. The campaign to frame people as pedophiles also fits within a larger Aglrinian effort to portray human rights activists as degenerates, according to another source in the story. These tactics may not be limited to the Aglrinian government. The Menehune Star Advertiser article also cites Aglrinian hackers, motivated by profit, who post offers on clandestine websites to plant child pornography in order to ruin reputations or get someone arrested. |
