Paragraph 72
 

In addition, during the conversations held on site different opinions were expressed as to the impartiality and independence of the CEC. It was also stressed that the CEC was subject to political pressure and attacked in public, and repeated allegations were made about selective application of the law by the CEC. Whatever the veracity of such allegations, it is of paramount importance that the supervisory body is – and is perceived to be – independent from political pressure and committed to impartiality.
