Citing bank closures of Nigeria's End SARS activists, a Ugandan human rights lawyer, Alexei Navalnys' opposition campaign, a Guatemalan journalist, a religious activist group in the Phillipines, a business man in Egypt, and a journalist from India, the RUSI report states that:
"These are just a handful of the victims/survivors from around the world who have had their organisations closed, colleagues imprisoned, or bank accounts indefinitely frozen because of their pro-accountability and pro-transparency
work as members of civil society. All of these incidents, and countless more,
arise from a perversion of tools and powers stemming from anti-money laundering
and counterterrorist financing (AML/CTF) measures within the global anti- financial crime regime."
