One can not defend human rights without denouncing the most serious violations. Torture will never end in Lebanon without naming the alleged perpetrators, without proper investigation of allegations, without ending impunity.
The first public court session against CLDH members for denouncing torture allegations will be held on March 17, 2015 at 09:00 am at Baadba Palace of Justice (publication court). We would like to invite you to attend the session in order to show support to CLDH, to human rights defenders' work in particular, and to freedom of expression in general.

I was given insight that I wasn’t aware of, which gave me a sense of empowerment, and then I was able to make the decision that I wanted to from that.” - Patricia, Breast Cancer Patient (Source)
