Story The Amnesty “departure boards” campaign, created by Leo Burnett, with media provided by JCDecaux, show details of seven individuals who are imprisoned and have been subject to torture and the date of their “departure” or when they were forcibly taken. The “departures” include:
Dhondup Wangchen - ChinaTibetan film-maker awaiting trial for "inciting separatism". He has been detained since 2008 for his involvement in making a documentary film about Tibetan attitudes towards the Beijing Olympics and the Dalai Lama. He was beaten in detention and is held without charge or trial. Amnesty considers him a prisoner of conscience.
Ebrima B. Manneh - GambiaJournalist arrested in 2006 at the offices of his newspaper, the Daily Observer. He was detained by plainclothes police officers thought to have been from the National Intelligence Agency, who have subsequently denied any involvement in his arrest or continued incommunicado detention. Amnesty International considers him to be a prisoner of conscience.
