Rosa Estaràs, a member of the European Parliament for the People's Party (PP), has called for increased international pressure on the Rwandan government to release opposition leader Victoire Ingabire and protect her fundamental rights. The MEP made this request in the European Parliament's Human Rights Committee, where Ingabire's son, Rémy Amahirwa, was present. He described the situation as a "permanent attack on human rights" and on everything she stands for, according to the PP. During her remarks, Estaràs, who knows Victoire and her family personally through her connection to Mallorca, recalled the long string of arrests and unfair legal proceedings Ingabire has endured since 2010.

Rosa Estaràs, a member of the Balearic Islands People's Party (PP), has publicly denounced the "political persecution" suffered by Rwandan opposition leader and president of the United Democratic Forces, Victoire Ingabire, currently imprisoned in Kigali. Estaràs made this clear in the European Parliament plenary session this Wednesday, according to the PP party in a press release.

Victoire Ingabire, the Rwandan politician who 15 years ago prepared to participate in the African country's elections in Mallorca, has been sent to pretrial detention on charges of forming an alleged criminal group and inciting public unrest. The decision, as confirmed by various African media outlets and those close to the politician and human rights activist, was made on July 15, "arguing a risk of flight and possible interference in the investigations," sources from organizations such as Veritas Rwanda Forum, which has been working for the democratization of the region for years, told ARA Baleares.
