A 4 años de la detención arbitraria de la defensora #KeniaHernández, seguimos exigiendo su #libertad.

“My father has been arbitrarily detained for over 700 days, facing inhumane treatment documented by an independent expert.

A notorious cybercrime law in #Indonesia that has been through multiple iterations seriously endangers the right to freedom of expression. A new report from @TrialWatch and @chr_aba shows how it has been weaponized against journalists and others: americanbar.org/groups/human_r…
