ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) — An Amnesty International researcher says Ethiopian officials arrested two opposition politicians after group members interviewed them about politically motivated arrests.
Researcher Claire Beston says she and a colleague spent 12 days in the country earlier. She says they were suddenly told by the government to leave on Saturday. Beston says the politicians were arrested the same day and accused of terrorism and links to the Oromo Liberation Front, a rebel group the government considers as terrorists.
