nterpol faces legal threat for helping oppressive regimes hunt dissidents
LONDON -- A landmark lawsuit alleging that dictatorships and other oppressive regimes are using Interpol's alert system to harass or detain political dissidents is being planned by rights activists and lawyers.

Campaigners allege that rogue states have fabricated criminal charges against opposition activists who have been given refuge in other countries and then sought their arrest by obtaining "red notices" from the global police body. [ Visit Website ]

Wanted activist Benny Wenda tells of 'bows and arrows' revolt
Benny Wenda was born in a village of the Lani people in the Baliem valley, a remote and beautiful mountain region of West Papua. It should have been an idyllic childhood.

Instead Wenda says one of his earliest memories is the bombing of his village in 1977; that at the age of five he witnessed his aunts being raped — "it make me hard cry, you know?" — and that later his uncle Kepas was beaten and buried alive. [ Visit Website ]

West Papua’s “Freedom” Flag
On December 1, 1961, the Dutch flag that had flown over the peninsula of West Papua for more than 130 years was replaced by the “Morning Star” flag. This signified an important transition for West Papua – away from colonialism, to a new start as a free nation.
