Human Rights Activist’s Pants Fall While Receiving Peace Award From Country’s President

A human rights activist was left red faced after his
trousers fell down just as he was receiving an important award from the
country’s president. Ivan Zvonimir Cicak reached out to take the certificate
from Croatian president Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic when he lost control of his
lower garments.

The head of the Croatian Helsinki Committee for Human Rights
was photographed looking shamefaced as his slacks slumped around his ankles,
before defiantly picking them up again and carrying on.

Luckily, Cicak’s dignity was saved by the fact
Grabar-Kitarovic was holding the largee award in her hands, preventing anyone
getting a glimpse of his underwear. She did not appear to react and remained
calm despite a brief glance downwards and a smile as he stooped to pull them
back up.

The award was presented to Cicak and the committee in Zagreb
for their work ahead of international Human Rights Day which is marked today,
10^th of December. More photos below…
