I couldn't get past the paywall, but are there any independent watchdogs with real political sway about this, or do we need to rely on journalism and rights groups? The issue I have is that journalism could be intensely valid and yet also considered so politically biased that anyone on 'the other side' would dismiss legitimate corruption because of the source. And if a 'same side' media doesn't cover it, it could look like a complete fabrication because what someone understands to be legitimate news sources don't cover the corruption...
