Ämne: Take Action: Russian Human Rights Lawyer Faces Disbarment

Dear Friend,

The Prosecutor General's office is threatening to disbar Karinna Moskalenko, a prominent Russian lawyer who has devoted years of practice to defending human rights.

Ms. Moskalenko is the founder of the International Protection Center, a non-profit legal assistance organization, and represents victims of human rights abuses before the European Court for Human Rights.

Please take action to show your support for Ms. Moskalenko and for the right of attorneys to defend human rights in Russia:http://action.humanrightsfirst.org/campaign/Moskalenko?rk=_d2ub571xS7LW
