🔴 Free Jose Rubén Zamora

Detained in appalling conditions for one year and sentenced in June to six years in prison following an unfair trial, Jose Rubén Zamora risks an even longer sentence on appeal. Sign RSF's petition urging the Guatemalan authorities to immediately release elPeriódico’s publisher!

SIGN THE PETITION

Zamora, one of Guatemala’s leading journalists, was arrested at his home on 29 July 2022. His conviction after an expedited trial in which he was denied the right to a fair and equitable defence, and the persecution that resulted in his newspaper’s closure, are unacceptable. Journalism is in danger in Guatemala.

We ask you to urgently sign this petition urging the Guatemalan authorities to release Jose Rubén Zamora immediately, drop all charges against him, and end the criminalisation of journalism in Guatemala. Join our call to #FreeZamora!

Thanks for your support.
