Counter-terrorism measures in many countries violate human rights, people detained without being brought to a judge. They are set for military tribunals that undermine legal protection. Guantanamo prison camp is still not closed. People locked up or imprisoned in violation of human rights in several countries as part of efforts to combat terrorism.

Amnesty works to ensure that all measures against terrorism must respect human rights. Stop by the stand on the pedestrian street in Arendal – and sign Amnesty’s action.
