Very powerful reporting on web censorship by @NahlahAyed @CBC on tools developed by Canadian company to censor human rights information on the web. Our 2015 laureate @Ahmed_Mansoor is profiled in the later half of the report youtube.com/watch?v=4W_VAA…

Could @OhoodAlRoumi the Minister for Happiness intevene? Given that its the International Day of Happiness, could the authorities in #AbuDhabi & #Dubai could arrange a family visit, or better yet, just #FreeAhmed. Link to our video of @Ahmed_Mansoor youtube.com/watch?v=ZjY_90… twitter.com/aseem_trivedi/…

Dear Ambassador, glad to see human rights are a concern. Closer to #UAE, could your government tell us #WhereIsAhmed Mansoor? He was arrested one year ago today. Last month the Ministry of the Interior claimed not to know where he is. Many think you should #FreeAhmed now. twitter.com/UAEMISSIONGENF…

#WhereIsAhmed Mansoor? Well, we can't tell you because he has been detained by the #UAE authorities for exactly one year today!!! While he has been silenced for one year, you can watch him speak about his human rights work here: youtube.com/watch?v=ZjY_90… #FreeAhmed pic.twitter.com/OW2mRdTcW5

Ahmed was selected as our 2015 laureate by 10 global human rights organizations, because he was at risk for speaking out: to prevent torture, to protect freedom of speech, and in favour of fair trials. #FreeAhmed twitter.com/AmnestyUAE/sta…

What would make us happy is if you could tell us #WhereIsAhmed Mansoor is. Detained by #UAE authorities exactly one year ago today. Last month your Ministry of Interior claimed to be unaware of him. He is the 2015 @martinennals laureate #FreeAhmed twitter.com/OhoodAlRoumi/s…

Our 2016 Laureate #IlhamTohti speaking in 2009. Foresaw a long prison term for speaking on behalf of his #Uyghur people. Speaks of the personal price paid, and then emotionally of fears for his family. Worth 11 minutes of your time. Just entered his 5th year of a life sentence. twitter.com/pl4et/status/9…

Mansoor was selected as our 2015 Laureate for exercising his freedom of expression. Even after others were silenced, he remained the last to speak publicly re: terrible human rights abuses #UAE. Perhaps participants @DiDubailitfest could use their freedom to speak to #freeahmed? twitter.com/scribblestreet…

.@martinennals laureate @Ahmed_Mansoor hasn’t been able to find a lawyer in 11 months, and he’s not being picky. Human rights lawyers in the UAE are threatened into not taking up cases like his. If you’re taking part in the @EmiratesLitFest, please help #FreeAhmed pic.twitter.com/opSlyghUPP
