The analysed amendments imply that, if the Central Electoral Commission considers that the behaviour of a person meets one of the criteria referred to in Article 16(2)(f), there is an implicit presumption that they committed illegitimate acts that justify their ineligibility. It may be acceptable to introduce a mechanism of disqualification to stand for election whereby the competent authorities or courts will merely verify whether a particular individual belongs to the category or group fulfilling the conditions of Article 16(2)(f), providing that the said individual is genuinely able to challenge the existence of such conditions in the first place, and if the standard of proof to rebut the presumption is lowered to only require from the person evidence that brings into question the truth of the presumed facts.
