During the meeting, members of the IATF reviewed and discussed information disseminated in the media as part of election environment monitoring concerning possible violations of electoral legislation by public servants. The Task Force also considered a separate incident that occurred during a protest rally near the election headquarters of a mayoral candidate.

The IATF calls on all participants in the election process to act strictly within the framework of the law and to contribute to ensuring that the pre-election period is conducted in a free, fair, and peaceful environment.

Established under the Election Code, the Task Force is mandated to prevent violations of electoral legislation by public servants, ensure a timely response to potential incidents, and develop appropriate recommendations.

The Task Force is chaired by the Minister of Justice, Paata Salia, and includes senior representatives of various state institutions, ensuring coordinated and effective action.
