💚 #HarmReduction victory! 💚 France's Conseil d'État, one of the country's apex courts, rules in favour of maintaining safer consumption site pilots. A handful of orgs argued that the sites worked against 'recovery' —a claim without basis in evidence. #HarmReductionSavesLives!

It is a dream come true to get this support for our efforts in engaging legal and media specialists to end punitive drug policies in Southeast Asia. Thank you . Excited to work with FAR & HON in Indonesia and Thailand on this!

We were delighted to spend face-to-face time with our amazing partners from Thailand (@IDPCnet) & Kenya (@VOCALKenya). We’re working together to ensure the rights of people who use drugs are upheld, to challenge laws that criminalise communities, and to end stigma. (2/3)

Singapore hanged Tangaraju this morning (26 April) despite concerns over fair trial processes & alignment with international human rights standards. A nation's right to sovereignty should NOT lie on the back of injustices towards society's lowest rung. Rest in power, Tangaraju.

Tangaraju's state-sanctioned death is a stark reminder of how punitive cannabis prohibition can be. No one should be killed for drugs. The work of is crucial to highlight these atrocities and fight back

Singapore deserves strident global condemnation for the unjust execution of Tangaraju. The death penalty for drugs is a violation of international law. While neighbours #Malaysia abolishes the mandatory death penalty & #Thailand legalises #cannabis Singapore wilfully doubles down

THREAD: In Singapore, families get only 7 days' notice before a loved one on death row is executed by the state. This is a small glimpse at the horror and hope they are consumed by as the clock ticks down to senseless state murder of their beloved.
