What rights groups want from police on June 25

The primary demand calls upon the police to facilitate and protect peaceful processions. To enhance accountability, the rights organisations insist that the NPS must ensure all deployed officers are clearly identifiable.

The advisory strongly emphasises that the use of force must be strictly restricted, occurring only when it is lawful, necessary, and proportionate to the situation at hand.

Furthermore, the bodies urge law enforcement to prioritise dialogue and de-escalation tactics over physical force. Media freedom is another critical pillar of the demands, with calls to protect journalists and guarantee their safety while covering the events.

The advisory also demands that medics and human rights observers be granted safe access to the protest areas to provide emergency care and monitor proceedings.
