On January 3, 2025, Moussa Tchangari, a human rights defender and secretary-general of Citizens’ Alternative Spaces, faced two new charges: “infringing on national defense” and “intelligence with enemy countries.” He was transferred to Filingué Prison, about 110 miles from Niamey, Niger’s capital.
Moussa’s ordeal began on December 3, 2024, when he was arrested. For two days, his fate and location were unknown. On December 5, authorities revealed he was being held at the Central Service for Combating Terrorism and Organized Transnational Crime in Niamey. He was charged with advocating terrorism and criminal association linked to terrorism. If convicted, Moussa could face five to 10 years in prison.
Please take action at your earliest convenience!
