Hundreds of pages of records released to The Canadian Press under the Access to Information Act chronicle a trail of frustrated efforts by Foreign Affairs officials to assist the former Toronto man languishing behind bars in Addis Ababa for a year and a half. A candid departmental assessment of recent upheaval in Ethiopia underscores the challenges: ``Post-electoral violence, judicial processes that did not fully respect due process, and regional or ethnic exclusion in the political system have not been good for Ethiopian politics,'' say ``talking points'' prepared for Makhtal's case.
