Condemned Indian man.

 

 A British lawyer has launched an international campaign to secure the immediate release of an Indian man sentenced to death in Pakistan.

Jas Uppal launched the campaign to secure the release of Sarabjit Singh after reading about his plight and deciding on the evidence presented that he was innocent. Mr Singh has spent 19 years in solitary confinement. Please read the following article by the BBC and contact Jas to offer support.

While you’re here…

Like you, we are horrified by the violence and the civilian death toll in Gaza, Israel and the rest of the Occupied Palestinian Territories. We’re calling for an immediate ceasefire by all parties in the occupied Gaza Strip and Israel to prevent further loss of civilian lives. Amnesty International is investigating mass summary killings, indiscriminate and disproportionate attacks, hostage-taking, and siege tactics.

As ever, our mission to protect human rights remains. Please donate today to help expose war crimes and protect human rights. Thank you.
