Briefing: <\/span>Rising Human Rights Violations Before the Sham Elections<\/p>

The Military Junta’s Sham Election, which Led to an Increase in Severe<\/p>

Human Rights Violations<\/p>

Ministry of Human Rights, National Unity Government<\/p>

November 2025<\/p>

Context and Framework<\/p>

Introduction<\/strong><\/p>

This briefing analyzes the dramatic escalation of human rights violations<\/p>

observed by the Ministry of Human Rights in the year 2025, a period marked<\/p>

by the military junta’s preparations for a staged or ‘sham’ election,<\/p>

announced on July 31, 2025. The surge in human rights abuses demonstrates<\/p>

a strategic campaign of intensified repression aimed at enabling them to<\/p>

organize the sporadic polls in selected areas the junta controls since the<\/p>

majority of the areas are controlled by pro-democracy revolutionary forces.<\/p>

Purpose<\/strong><\/p>

The primary objective of this report is to quantify and document the scale of<\/p>

human rights violations directly related to the military’s pre-election<\/p>

maneuvers, highlighting the use of military operations and repressions to<\/p>

suppress resistance and intimidate the civilian population.<\/p>

Background<\/strong><\/p>

Despite ongoing conflict and widespread resistance, the military junta<\/p>

pushed forward with its plan to hold multi-stage elections on December 28<\/p>

(first phase) January 11, 2026 (second phase) and an unannounced date (third<\/p>

phase). The period leading up to the announcement and immediately<\/p>

following it was defined by intensified violence and the use of draconian laws<\/p>

to suppress dissent, and consolidate control over areas they plan to hold<\/p>

elections, at least sporadically, using military force.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
