À propos de cet audio

Repressive regimes throughout the world are increasingly relying on political imprisonment to silence opposition and dissent. In this episode, Brian Tronic, Director of the Fred Hiatt Program to Free Political Prisoners at Freedom House, will discuss what a "political prisoner" is; the prevalence of political imprisonment and key countries of concern; common issues political prisoners face and violations they experience; and advocacy strategies for their release. He will be joined by Talia Khattak, the daughter of Pakistani political prisoner Idris Khattak, who will share her father's story and what it is like when a family member becomes a political prisoner.
