Campaign for the freedom of Colombian Political Prisoners

www.justiceforcolombia.org

 

There are hundreds of political prisoners currently languishing in Colombia’s jails.

They include numerous trade unionists, student activists, community and indigenous leaders and human rights defenders – all imprisoned for their opposition to Colombian government policies. Many Colombian political prisoners have not been charged with any crime and some suffered appalling abuses, including torture, when they were originally detained. They are kept in appalling conditions in overcrowded jails. Justice for Colombia is campaigning for the release of Colombia's political prisoners.
