From groups organised with several of their undercover individuals, Municipal Election Officials and police officials have been attacked with fellow bombings and shootings in the air to stop their official task.

Attacks such as this one is aimed at blocking the election process today are unacceptable. Organising elections is a constitutional obligation, while participating in them is the right of citizens who cannot be affected by anyone.
