Your Excellency,
I condemn the ongoing detention of prominent human rights lawyer Ruth López. She is facing criminal charges solely because of her work against corruption and her efforts to promote institutional transparency. She is the head of AntiCorruption at Cristosal, one of the most respected human rights groups. Prior to her arrest, she was subjected to repeated harassment, stigmatization, and surveillance by the Salvadoran government. She was arrested on May 18, 2025, and held incommunicado for over 40 hours, without access to her family or legal counsel.
I call on the Salvadoran authorities to immediately release Ruth López, drop all charges against her, and ensure her safety and due process. I further urge you to stop criminalizing human rights defenders and silencing civil society.
Yours sincerely,
