Maldives

A friend of mine works in India with the Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative. A friend of hers based in the Maldives has been arrested and sentenced to ten years in jail for "terrorism". Her crime? Being a peace protestor and activist.

Amnesty provides all the useful information:

"Amnesty International considers her imprisonment to be politically motivated, and believes Jennifer Latheef is a prisoner of conscience, jailed solely for exercising her right to peaceful protest."

DBO,
Thanks for your eloquent and truthful words. Many are in this struggle and ignore the slander.
See you at the barricades.
