London Region of Amnesty is horrified by what is happening in Iran, and will be marching in solidarity on Saturday 14th as part of a Global Day of Action at 10 Downing Street, 12 noon. We hope you will stand with us to show those watching that this horror can no longer continue.
Please be today the voice of @Ahmed_Mansoor. He was arrested 8 years ago. He was then sentenced to 10 years in prison for his human rights activism. Last year he was sentenced to an additional 15 years in prison. A few days ago this sentence was upheld. Be his voice #FreeAhmed

On 20.3.17, Ahmed Mansoor was arrested in #UAE. He has suffered solitary confinement in appalling circumstances, rarely seeing his family. Ahmed has been the victim of unfair trials, when all he has done is defend human rights. @AmnestyMENA@FriendsOfAhmed@ICFUAE@alirezaazizi
At one point today I felt like sitting on the pavement to just cry (I didn't)
I just wish I could explain how painfully consuming it had all been. To be fighting for the survival of your family for 11 years.
We are exhausted to the bones, yet we have to gear up for a new fight
