In view of the threats made against the members of the Supreme Electoral Tribunal (TSE), by “evist” leaders, the Ombudsman’s Office expressed its concern and rejected the harassment to which the electoral authorities are subjected. “The Ombudsman’s Office expresses its utmost concern at the escalation of belligerent speeches in the conflict situation in the country due to the economic crisis and the pre-electoral context,” says a statement.
