All charges dropped!

Edwin Espinal & Raul Alvarez, Honduran political prisoners, had all the malicious criminal charges against them dropped

Pending formalization of ruling – Stay tuned!
Edwin and Raul have to wait a bit longer for the ruling to be formally published, and the appeal period to expire. It was, however, a clear and fast ruling from the court. It is widely suspected the ruling will be legally ratified, and the decision will not be appealed by the (corrupt, military-backed) Honduran State.
 
THANK-YOU to all Rights Action supporters who helped us support this very difficult struggle that began with Edwin’s illegal detention on January 18, 2018.
 
The almost 4 years struggle was led by Karen Spring, Edwin’s partner in Honduras, and by Janet Spring, Edwin’s mom-in-law in Elmvale Ontario.
