The following is a text from Family and Friends of Prisoners, Bulgaria.

Jock Palfreeman’s hunger strike is in it’s 30th day today, May 21st. On April 21st 2019, Palfreeman declared a hunger strike due to the systematic pressure and harassment that he has been subjected to over the last two years from the prison administration and the Ministry of Justice because of his human rights work with Bulgarian Prisoners’ Association and as a form of protest against widespread corruption and abuse of power in Bulgarian prisons.

Palfreeman and BRPA are targeted for the political work they are doing within prisons and for speaking up against its administration and representatives of the Ministry of Justice!
Four weeks after Palfreeman has declared his hunger strike, amidst the deafening silence from both the Ministry of Justice and the prison administration of Sofia Central Prison, to whose hospital ward he has been recently moved, the danger of a permanent damage to his health is becoming increasingly real.

WE SHOULD ACT NOW OR THE LOSS OF A HUMAN LIFE WILL LIE ON OUR CONSCIENCE.
