Requirements for government sanction for prosecution are used far too often to block accountability and shield perpetrators of human rights violations. (2/2)

A #Manipur court's decision to close an alleged fake encounter case - citing lack of government sanction to prosecute five accused policemen - is disappointing. (1/2)

"The end result, if governments are allowed to continue with these tactics, is a world in which we are more divided than ever, and in which fewer people are willing or able to stand up for the rights of marginalised communities."

New @amnesty report, Laws Designed to Silence: The Global Crackdown on Civil Society Organizations, reveals that a startling number of countries are relying on repressive laws & arbitrary restrictions to stop non-governmental orgs from doing vital work. amnesty.org/en/latest/news…

It was absurd for the Uttar Pradesh police to invoke the sedition law in the first place against students who had an altercation with a TV crew. This colonial-era law needs to go.

There is no evidence that the #deathpenalty is a deterrent against crime. Executions are never the solution and for drug-related offences, constitute a violation of international law. Sign the @amnesty petition against the death penalty in #SriLanka. #lka

West Bengal authorities need to protect filmmakers' right to free expression, and not cite 'public sentiment' to undermine the rule of law.

The assault on NGOs has affected us as well. Government leaders have targeted our staff with abuse, asset freezes & office raids in #India 🤔 Strong leaders welcome different opinions. Strong leaders don’t bully charities. Take action now. amnesty.org/en/get-involve…

In 2018, India witnessed a massive crackdown on freedom of expression and human rights defenders. When #brave people call out actions that are unjust or just wrong, strong leaders listen and act.
