Prisoners of Conscience
PERU : Julia Natividad RodrÌguez Suarez (f)
23 May 2006
On 22 May, the Supreme Court withdrew the warrant for Julia Natividad RodrÌguez Suarez’s arrest, replacing it with an order for her to appear before the Supreme Court when her case is heard. It is not known when this will be, but she is not in immediate danger.
The human rights organization representing Herminio Palominio Soto and Julia RodrÌguez Suarez, the AsociaciÛn Ministerio Diaconal Paz y Esperanza, sent the following message to Amnesty International :
"we believe that the response to the Urgent Action you issued has been very important in this case and thanks to it today there are two innocent people unfairly convicted of belonging to the armed opposition who are now at liberty and can continue enjoying the company and support of their families while they wait for their cases to be heard before the court."
(creemos que ha sido muy importante la respuesta a la AcciÛn Urgente enviada por ustedes y gracias a ello hoy dos personas inocentes e injustamente procesadas [por pertenecer a los grupos armados de oposiciÛn] gozan de libertad y pueden continuar con la compaÒÌa y apoyo de su familia en este tiempo que a ?n les queda de proceso.)
No further action is requested from the UA network. Many thanks to all who sent appeals.
