The International Observatory of Human Rights is organising a peaceful protest in front of the Myanmar Embassy to petition for the release of Reuters journalists Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo.
These journalists are just the latest in a long line of human rights violations in Myanmar and we felt that it was important to make a stand against this travesty of justice to support freedom of expression. Therefore, IOHR is calling for all to show solidarity for these journalists by joining the protest on the 27th September.
IOHR Director, Ms Valerie Peay will be delivering an open letter to the State Councillor Aung San Suu Kyi calling for their immediate release and welcoming any other voices who would like to support this protest.
For further information on the event, please do not hesitate to contact ash@observatoryihr.org
