GIVE DOMINIQUE MAKELI A TRIAL OR LET HIM GO

Dominique Makeli, a former journalist for Radio Rwanda, has been detained for almost 12 years without ever being tried. The charges against him have repeatedly changed.

Dear Mr Ngoga,

I call on you to try Dominique Makeli without further delays in proceedings that meet international standards of fair trial and without recourse to the death penalty. If you are unable to establish a case against him and put him on trial, I urge you release him from detention.

Thank you for considering my request.

Yours sincerely,
