(1/2) The continued detention of human rights lawyer and our valued partner Ruth López is a grave injustice. Ruth deserves transparency, due process, and her freedom.
We reiterate that the detention of Ruth López is unjust and disproportionate, and violates international human rights standards as well as our own legal frameworks.
We will continue supporting all efforts to ensure her freedom and her right to a fair trial
