Amnesty urges El Salvador to free detained rights defender
Original: El Salvador: End prolonged pre-trial detention of human rights defender
Amnesty International is calling on El Salvador to end the prolonged pre-trial detention of a human rights defender, arguing the person is being held without due process. The appeal adds to wider criticism of the country's mass detentions and emergency measures, which rights groups say have swept up activists and ordinary citizens alike while courts postpone hearings indefinitely.
Why now: Concerns are growing over El Salvador's use of prolonged pre-trial detention under its state of exception.
