The Committee for Solidarity with Political Prisoners (CSPP) has posted on social media:
“As CSPP, we took part in the May Day march as CVI, providing support at various points along the route across the country to safeguard and defend the right to protest.
On the streets, we reaffirmed that protesting is a right, not a crime, and that human rights support is key to safeguarding life, dignity and social mobilisation.
#DefendFreedom #MayDay”
