Human Rights in Latvia


The Latvian Center for Human Rights and Ethnic Studies released an

covering new developments in the judicial system, freedom of
expression, the death penalty, freedom of movement, citizenship,
protection of minorities, hate speech, ill-treatment by law
enforcement officials, conditions in prisons, the mentally ill,
refugees, conscientious objectors, and gender equality. For additional
