A/HRC/32/36/Add.3 à la liberté d’association et de réunion pacifique dans un environnement favorable leur permettant de mener à bien leurs activités sans risque d’être exposés à des menaces, représailles, intimidations ou actes de harcèlement. Visite de pays 454. Le Rapporteur spécial rappelle au Gouvernement du Maroc ses demandes de visite formulées en 2011 et 2013. Il est convaincu qu’une visite du pays lui permettrait de mieux comprendre le contexte dans lequel le droit de réunion pacifique et d’association y est exercé et d’engager un dialogue constructif avec le Gouvernement sur ces questions. A la lumière de l’esprit des résolutions 15/21 et 24/5 du Conseil des droits de l’homme qui appelle les Etats à répondre favorablement aux demandes de visite, il espère recevoir une réponse positive du Gouvernement. Oman 455. JUA 27/03/2015. Case no. OMN 2/2015. State reply: None. Alleged acts of intimidation and reprisal, in the form of a travel ban, against an Omani human rights defender and blogger for his cooperation with the Special Rapporteur on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association. Observations Response to communication 456. The Special Rapporteur regrets that he has not yet received a response to his communication sent on 27 March 2015 (OMN 2/2015) and reminds the Government of Oman that he considers responses to his communications as an important part of the cooperation of Governments with his mandate. 457. He calls upon States to cooperate fully with and assist him in the performance of his mandate, in compliance with Human Rights Council resolutions 24/5 (2013), 21/16 (2012) and 15/21 (2010). In the absence of information to the contrary, the Special Rapporteur concludes that there is substance in the allegations presented in his communications. 458. In connection with the case of Mr. Mohammed Al-Fazari, the Special Rapporteur condemns the travel ban issued as an act of intimidation and reprisal against Mr. Al-Farzari for his cooperation with the Special Rapporteur during his country visit to Oman between 8 and 13 September 2014. He strongly regrets that the Government of Oman has not replied to this communication and he reminds the Government of its international obligation to cooperate with the mandate. 459. The Special Rapporteur takes the opportunity to call on the Government of Oman to implement the recommendations made in his country visit report, including to ensure that no one be criminalized for exercising their right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association, or subjected to threats or use of violence, harassment, persecution, intimidation or reprisals; as well as to adopt a new law on associations that complies with international human rights standards, including the right to freedom of association without delay (A/HRC/29/25/Add.1, para.70). 67
