Oslo, 05 March, 2009
Dear Mr President
I, as a member of Writers in Prison Committe of Norwegian PEN, am protesting the harassment of Patricia Ariza, particularly the Colombian State’s attempts to link her to terrorist groups, and calling on the authorities to allow her and other writers to pursue their legitimate writing and political activities in peace.
Confident that You, Your Excellency, will take action accordingly, I remain.
Yours sincerely
Unni Malmø, member of Writers in Prison Committee, Norwegian Pen
