Dear Friend
The following is a list of all the trade unionists who have been assassinated in Colombia this year by paramilitaries and their allies in the Colombian security forces.
Please send the list to the addresses below and demand that immediate action be taken to stop the relentless and barbaric killing of social activists by state agents.
With kind regards
