Hi Friend!
Let us look at the example of Zimbabwe.
Zimbabewe attained independence from White minority rule in 1980.
Since than the country has been ruled by ZANU-PF(headed by Robert Mugabe), the party that led the freedom struggle.
In Zimbabwe this particular party always won the elections. No matter how hard the opposition parties tried, they always lost to the ZANU-PF. Normally, the elections were held regularly and opposition parties were also allowed to contest the elections. But since, the ZANU-PF was infamous for using unfair practices to win the elections,therefore,every time it was the soul party-winner. Over the years to come, mugabe's government has changed the constitution several times to increase the power of the president. These make him less accountable. The opposition party workers have also been continuously harrassed and their meeting are disrupted. Public protests have been straightaway declared to be illegal and against the government. The news braodcast in the televisions and the radios are also completely monitored , supervised and checked by the government. The government has ignored some of the past court judgments too..
All this shows how a popular government, as was in this case, can really misuse their power and completely go against the set of ideal democratic governments to come into power and become famous..There is total dictatorship exercised by the government..
So, in this case, the laws are being violated..

It is said that Robert Mugabe is working ruling like a dictator as under him there have been systematic and escalating violations of human rights in Zimbabwe .The reputed organisation Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch has reported that the government of Zimbabwe violates the rights to shelter, food, freedom of movement and residence, freedom of assembly and the protection of the law.These violations took place after The Opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), led by Morgan Tsvangirai, won both the parliamentary election and the first round of the presidential, sparking a run-off in a latter.
