Tanzanian riot police disperse demonstrators during violent protests that marred the election following the disqualification of the two leading opposition candidates in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, October 29, 2025.
Two rights activists have filed a case against the Tanzanian government at the East African Court of Justice (EACJ) over alleged violations of procedures and standards during the October 29, 2025 General Election.
The suit is the second legal challenge before the regional court arising from the disputed poll, following an earlier case filed by the Legal and Human Rights Centre (LHRC) over a nationwide internet shutdown imposed between October 29 and November 4, 2025.
