Urgent actions – 2008 update

April 4, 2009

Just had these details through from Amnesty UK:

Out of the 349 urgent actions and 166 updates (which

included further action) issued last year, there were

unsuccessful outcomes in 13% of UAs and positive

outcomes in 20% (including releases, stays of execution

and pardons).

So your letter writing can and does make a difference!
