The 5th ICOR Conference condemns the political persecution that the comrades of the MOVEMENT FOR AMNESTY AND FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS (MOVADEF) of Peru have suffered since their founding in 2009.

MOVADEF is a democratic organization recognized by the Peruvian State, which fights for the social and basic rights of the Peruvian people.

Initially, it was refused registration to participate in the elections, although it complied with all the requirements of the Peruvian electoral law. Then criminal proceedings for “terrorism” were opened, but all the criminal courts of the Peruvian judicial system did not accept this and completely acquitted MOVADEF.

We demand from the Peruvian State that it ceases the repression, detention and persecution against social leaders and popular organizations of the massive popular movement in Peru. We demand the freedom of all political and social prisoners, such as the movement opposing Dina Boluarte’s coup d’état. We are calling for the government to be condemned as responsible for more than 70 murders during the just and legal mass mobilizations of the popular movement.

We demand respect for due process for MOVADEF comrades, that they be fully acquitted, and compensation for all.

Stop the persecution in Peru!
