Pay attention to Court of Appeal in #singapore today. 24 *UNREPRESENTED* individuals on death row need to show why claim they cannot get legal representation on late-stage proceedings on #deathpenalty has merit. Given high stakes, these fast-tracked hearings are concerning. Thinking of the human rights defenders and capital defendants in Singapore.

I'm excited to be working with the great team OneHeart UTS who have put together an app with Neota Logic and the help of Allens Linklaters to help those and the families of those at risk of the death penalty to get assistance from us, and to help those of you who want to support anti-death penalty work to find pathways to join us. Thank you to Uts Law for its support for anti-death penalty work and to the brilliant people I've been able to work with who have selflessly given their time for free!
