AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL
There are various non-governmental organizations that decry violations of human rights, the most prominent of them being
Amnesty International. When a British lawyer, Peter Benenson, published an article about two imprisoned students, he
started a campaign for release of these “prisoners of conscience”. The principal aim of AI is to put pressure on governments
by creating publicity and writing letters, which would give rise to fair trials for political prisoners and end of torture.
Violation of human rights and political pressures often lead to emigration. People fleeing their country (refugees) seek political
asylum in foreign countries.
