The Sun News On-line The statement described the inclusion of the IRS Airlines in the clampdown action as a mere "Smokescreen to justify the vindictive action against Slok". As Nigerians are still expressing shock over the clampdown on the Slok Airlines by the Federal Government, experts in the aviation industry have described the government action as political vendetta. While stating that it had always been at the vanguard of safety operations of airlines in the country, NASI stressed that the decision to clampdown on Slok airlines "Snacks of high-handedness, double standards and leaves a lot to be desired." www.sunnewsonline.com /webpages/news/national/2004/mar/15/national-03152004-039.htm

Guardian Unlimited Special reports Soros closes Uzbek charity The billionaire philanthropist George Soros said yesterday his charity in Uzbekistan had been forced to close after almost 40 years because of a clampdown by authorities alarmed at the recent revolution in another former Soviet republic, Georgia. The Open Society Institute Assistance Foundation, along with other non-governmental organisations, was asked to re-register with the state under rules granting the government an effective veto over their activities. However popular discontent at the dictatorial government is rife, and the president, Islam Karimov, is said to have panicked when protests in Tbilisi led to the ousting of another post-Soviet authoritarian, the then Georgian president Eduard Shevardnadze, in November. www.guardian.co.uk /russia/article/0,2763,1194674,00.html   (345 words)
