On Friday 26 February, Emad Baghi, 2009 Laureate of the Martin Ennals Award for Human Rights Defenders (MEA), addressed the closing plenary of the 4th World Congress Against the Death Penalty in Geneva. The Iranian campaigner is a theologian who argues that Islamic law does not support capital punishment. Baghi was able to address the meeting, in spite of being arbitrarily detained since 23 December, through film images from the True Heroes Foundation in the Hague (www.trueheroesfilms.org). The 10 international NGOs that constitute the Jury of the MEA (www.martinennalsaward.org) have demanded his immediately release.
