Reprieve

Reprieve is an international legal action charity. Reprieve's mission is to use strategic interventions to fight the use of the death penalty, secret prisons and targeted assassinations by governments, whilst challenging the notion that such abuses can ever be justified. We have three interconnected casework teams working on the death penalty, assassinations and secret prisons. Reprieve provides free legal and investigative support to people facing the death penalty and those victimised by abusive counter-terrorism policies. We fight to end the world's most extreme human rights abuses. We promote the rule of law around the world and secure each person's right to a fair trial, equal treatment, and freedom from torture. Reprieve's vision is a world without the death penalty, secret prisons, and state-sanctioned assassinations.
