A sit in today in solidarity with victims of violence without discrimination

On the occasion of the international day for the support of victims of violence, a group of civil society and human rights organizations along with the syndicate of lawyers in Beirut have called for a protest today at 8:30 pm at the Museum Plaza in Beirut. Protesters are condemning all forms of torture and without discrimination on the basis of race, creed, nationality or belief.  This move was motivated by the recent news of torture perpetrated against Islamist inmates in the Roumieh prison.
