Canadian Government Called to Condemn Smear Campaign Against Al-Haq & Death Treats in regard to Human Right Defender
We have been informed by Al-Haq about a smearing campaign and death threats against Mr. Shawan Jabarin, General Director of the Palestinian NGO Al-Haq and Secretary General of International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH)
Just Peace Advocates joins with the Observatory for the Protection of Human Rights Defenders, a partnership of FIDH and the World Organisation Against Torture (OMCT) to in condemnation of the smearing campaign and death threats against Mr. Shawan Jabarin.
In particular in Canada we call on Prime Minister Trudeau to make a clear statement condemning this slander against Al-Haq and the death threats against Mr. Jabarin.
We call on Canadian Prime Minister Trudea to call on the Israeli authorities to immediately end any acts of harassment against Mr. Jabarin, Al-Haq and all the human rights defenders, and to ensure human rights defenders are able to carry out their legitimate and peaceful human rights work without fear of hindrance or reprisals.
