Dear Friends,

The MST needs your solidarity.

In Alagoas, there are 5 MST leaders who have been imprisoned since the end of April - 4 men and one woman. They are in jail by request of the federal police who copied their names from the newspaper and considered them the leaders of a demonstration of 3,000 landless who occupied an INCRA building in April.

MST lawyers have entered a habeas corpus plea. Please send the letter below to help.
