Publication : Press Release

We, the undersigned Civil Society Organizations, condemn the decision of the appeal court denying the release on bail of the 21 workers and human rights defenders, detained since the beginning of January 2014 for their involvement in garment demonstrations. Moreover, the action of the authorities toward the supporters gathering peacefully outside the appeal court and near the Royal Palace was contrary to the fundamental principles of the freedom of peaceful assembly.
