🇷🇸#Serbia: IPI is concerned over the latest #SLAPP verdict against independent local news portal IN Medija, following a worrying ruling by the Court of Appeals in Belgrade upholding a previous decision & ordering it to pay 161,000 dinars in damages and legal fees. #EndSLAPPs
.@CASECoalition members have met to discuss goals and strategies for the upcoming year. Knowledge exchange is crucial for identifying ways to enhance our engagement and impact in supporting #SLAPP targets and CSOs in their advocacy to implement anti-SLAPP protections.

We welcome the acquittal of female human rights activists @AngkhanaNee, @PuttaneeKangkun, and @KwanSaleepholT but assert that this case should have never taken place. #Thailand must #EndSLAPPs (Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation) and decriminalize defamation.
BREAKING: In a verdict read today, the Bangkok South Criminal Court acquitted three women human rights defenders—Angkhana Neelapaijit, @PuttaneeKangkun, and @KwanSaleepholT—of criminal defamation charges brought by the Thai poultry company #Thammakaset. https://t.co/D09C3AGOA1
Tomorrow, a court in #Thailand will decide whether three female human rights activists are going to be imprisoned merely for social media comments in which they express their support for fellow human rights defenders and call for an end to abusive lawsuits. #EndSLAPPs.
Whether it’s Zahawi or Prigozhin or the oligarchs who sued me and @CatherineBelton, lawfare is about how we decide what’s real. By force of money and fear; or by free inquiry. That’s what’s at stake in the fight to #EndSlapps
Is Rishi Sunak's government actually willing to stop oligarchs and rich and powerful around the world from using London's libel courts to silence journalists?
Or is it all just hot air?
We might be about to find out (a wee 🧵)

"This wasn’t a war crimes tribunal. Prigozhin was in Russia, merrily spending the money his mercenaries were earning for him, using some of it to sue perhaps Britain’s best investigative journalist."
@OliverBullough nails it on @openDemocracy #EndSlapps

OLIVER BULLOUGH: Yevgeny Prigozhin shows just how much the legal system favours the wealthy over the truth https://t.co/bNlfzirRh6
We are one of a number of orgs trying to #EndSlapps alongside @skcoughtrie @Nikwilliams2 @englishpen @TBIJ and many others doing fantastic work.
Please do consider supporting @openDemocracy so we can continue telling stories that matter

A group of MPs including @margarethodge and @liambyrnemp put down an amendment to ban Strategic Legal Actions Against Public Participants - and stop our courts being used to silence the truth.
Will Tory MPs finally act to #EndSlapps?
If not, why not??

2/. And on Wednesday we COULD change the law - if ministers accept our amendment to ban Strategic Legal Actions Against Public Participants - and stop our courts being used to silence truth tellers like

Every story matters. But some stories *really* matter.
Today @openDemocracy's extraordinary revelation that Rishi Sunak's Treasury gave sanction waivers to Putin's warlord-in-chief has made huge waves in Parliament.
Now we need MPs to act to #EndSlapps
https://t.co/WEVivx1MEg
Unbelievable. The Tories gave sanction waivers to warlords - a green light to Wagner Group boss Prigozhin to fly lawyers to Russia to polish his effort to silence @bellingcat. Today in @HouseofCommons I thanked @jimfitznews & @openDemocracy for the story - & demanded answers
#Italy: Important testimony shared by @irpinvestigates, constantly distracted from their core investigative work to fight back against vexatious civil and criminal prosecutions also known as #SLAPPs.
These shameful practices are happening all over Europe. #EndSLAPPs
Journalists around the world are forced to spend hours every week defending themselves against frivolous lawsuits, including those at our Italian member center @irpinvestigates 🇮🇹
Editor Cecilia Anesi explains. Help us #SLAPPBack

The right to protest and to speak out about problems and injustices is essential to American civic life. SLAPP lawsuits are designed to drown out and silence those that speak out against corporate abuse. #EndSLAPPs
#Croatia New survey found at least 951 active lawsuits against journalists & media outlets, 928 of which are related to violations of the reputation and honour @CASECoalition @HNDhr #EndSLAPPs https://t.co/MyEFn4v6QP
This is an important moment for #Europe @RobertaMetsola :“Incredibly proud moment today as our report on new #EU measures to protect journalists (…)We are fixing t/system to favour those who seek t/truth rather than those who try to hide it #EndSLAPPs 🇪🇺 https://t.co/sk2H3MsDZf

Instead of doing the right thing and paying $9.5 billion in reparations to the Ecuadorian people, Chevron withdrew its assets from the country and threatened the communities with a “lifetime of litigation”. #ChevronGuilty #EndSLAPPs #FreeDonziger https://t.co/KQSPKq3WtT
