Terrorizing The First Woman Presidential Candidate

20th October 2015

The Electoral Commission
Aathi Chambers
Mont Fleuri

Dear Mr. Gappy,

Re: Provision of Security for Presidential Candidates

1                    I write out of concern for my personal safety following certain recent incidents.

2                    Recently, 8 of my dogs were killed at my home on Praslin. Last week a little car driven by  a person wearing little glasses followed my husband for three hours around town and even entered through the security gates at my home on Mahe and exited behind him when he left.

3                    On Sunday 19th October 2015 my 86 year old aunty informed me that she received an anonymous, threatening and menacing phone call from a man questioning her about  my whereabouts.

4                    Since May 2015 I have gone through 5 mobile phones because they keep malfunctioning, my internet access both at the office and home are interfered with.  I assume that as the election time approaches the threats to my personal security will go into overdrive.

5                    What kind of regime acts in this cowardly fashion? Having failed to intimidate and scare Mr. Pillay off the State apparatus has now decided that I am a soft target?

6                    Mr. Gappy it is now of paramount importance that the Electoral Commission write to the Commissioner of Police requesting that these matters are fully investigated and appropriate steps taken against those responsible for these cowardly acts calculated to spread terror in the country in the run up to the election.

7                    I am sending a copy of this letter to all foreign Embassies, the British High Commission, local media houses for publication, the Commonwealth Secretariat and SADC amongst others.

8                    On Monday 19th October 2015 when I disembarked from the Praslin early morning flight the person who had previously followed my husband around, was “waiting” and appeared  to be going up and down that part of the road between the domestic and the international terminals, at the airport.

9                    Please note that failure on the part of the Electoral Commission to act, will be treated as a condonation of the acts of terror and international organisations will be asked to intervene.

     Yours sincerely,



    Alexia G. Amesbury
   (Party leader for Seychelles Party for Social Justice & Democracy)

“The only thing necessary for triumph of evil is that good men do nothing“,said Edmund Burke.As Mr Pillay,Mrs Alexia,has bravely decided to speak.truth power.Their truth hurts!
The evil that Mrs Alexia challenges,is not the evil that Aquiras wrestled with Questions 48 and 48 of Summa Theologica.Nor,concerned about the evil Spinoza determined,originates in the mind that lacks understanding because it is overwrought by fickle emotions.Neither concerned with the evil that,for most of us is associated with the Devil and lesser intermrdiaries.
Mrs has been and is concerned about the evil of human wickedness and bestial human behaviour that Aristotle alluded in Nicomachean Ethics.She is concerned about grstuitous evil (pointless evil from which no greater good can derived),commited by sub~ordinary wicked people whose intellect is corrupted and bankrupted.

Mrs Alexia has been the drum major for justice and democrcy.we can feel them like our heartbeats.Her words echoes in seychellois minds.She teaches us the true meanings of courage ~~that capacity to stand up fot one!s beliefs and fight with the weapon of truth and ideas.

Mrs Alexia,teaches us the true meaning of the expression that the limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.She is the living example of proposition that there id no victory in the struggle for democracy,frerdom,justice,nnd human rights without sacrifice,dogged tenacity and fortitude.

Mrs Alexia challenges us to answer that simple question which many of us still serk tovavoid,: Will we define the defining momentin our lives in December,or let the moment define us in that moment?
Mrs Alexia,is for me,the personification of the audacity of faith and hopr that rise to triumph,for Seychellois are destined by Providrnce to be victorious over inglorious.
Mrs Alexia is not knoen to be someone who let herdelf intimidated by cowards,loosers......she must feel even stronger in thee face of State organized terrorism...she has the body,soul and the spirits of Seychelois accompaying her in this moment...Mrs Alexia knows..intimdation,harassment are not signs of strength but weakness...pl beasts arevtheaten in their own cage.
We coming for u pl...u can intimidate ,harass,thisvwould not stop change,for change id inrvitable.......

When you face evil you face it in all it's complexity.
What is happening to Alexia is no different from what has happen to others.
Evil must simply be faced down.
Freedom and. Liberty never came cheap or easy for any people.
We Seychellios are not going to be the exception.
Bon courage to all!

Michel is traped in a historical wrap.Hr is a hopeless,toothless old dog corned by Alexia.As the saying goes“desperatr men will resort to desperate measures“,we saw hoe Ghadafi used desperate means n lybia,he ended as a swerage rat,we saw Ben ali ,Mubarak used desperate actions in Egypt,,we also saw the reverse consequences of the desperate acts...itvseems michel has learned nothing from thr mistakes of his idols......
It seems also,that michel decision to use srcret police to intimdate women,isa gift he received from his arab friends......aminalize,dishumanize,harass,terorize them,......they are semi~human,.....
It seems coward michel fears morevAlexia than eunuch Ram......

Without the feelings of respect for even women,what is there left to distinguish Michel from the beast.
I heard he has confiscated Ah Tims skull by superstitution......

We will depose the cowardly tyrant.We must reclaim our dignity from the oppressor...we must defy him,and not comply with the tyrant.Michel is a coward,he can not confront people who are determined to reclaim their dignity.
We are going to defeat Tyrannausor Michel and win this election ,by defying the tyrant,but not by complying with him.He can not defeat an idea of people who are committed.Michel can not humiliate people in their own land,we will liberate,unchain them from pl slavery.

There is a standing allegation Michel kill his son point blank.
So what makes anyone think Michel will not kill a man, if he has already as. Numerous allegations assert, fomenting fear in a woman by killing her dogs and follow ing her is just part of the madness.
As election approaches there will be more madness from Michel as usual.
