Free expression groups call to free journalist
English PEN have joined forces with other leading free expression groups – Amnesty International UK, Article 19 and Index on Censorship to collectively call for the immediate release of journalist Eynulla Fatullayev.
The organisation has issued a press release saying it was “extremely concerned” by the fabricated charges of drugs possession brought against him in December 2009, and the recent death threats received by his father.
On Thursday 3 June we will be holding a peaceful protest outside the Azerbaijani Embassy in London between 12pm and 1pm. Join them if you are able to!
