Council of Europe Commissioner urges rights-compliant protest policing
Original: Commissioner O'Flaherty calls for the protection of the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and human rights-compliant policing
Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights Michael O'Flaherty has issued a call for European states to protect the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and to ensure that policing of protests complies with human rights standards. The statement stresses that authorities must facilitate peaceful demonstrations rather than restrict them, and that any law-enforcement response must be proportionate and accountability-based.
Why now: Human rights bodies are drawing attention to how police handle protests, prompting debate over assembly rights across Europe.
