(ANSA-AFP) - STOCKHOLM, FEBRUARY 20 - Greta Thunberg continues to support Disha Ravi, the 22-year-old Indian activist in prison since February 14 in New Delhi on charges of 'sedition'.
"Freedom of speech and peaceful demonstration are non-negotiable human rights," the Swedish environmentalist wrote on Twitter, accompanying the message with the hashtag # StandWithDishaRavi.
Among the founders of the Indian group of 'Fridays for Future' he notes in his country as the Indian Greta, she is an employee of a company in Bangalore that produces organic food.
Her friends describe her as a brilliant student, who in record time earned a degree in Economics and business management specializing in Finance, and who, today, is the only one in the family to bring home a salary.
For the Delhi Police, he is guilty of having "instigated" the protest through the creation of the 'toolkit', the "toolkit" spread online to support Indian peasants in their struggle, relaunched last February 4 by Greta.
The protests in India for the arrest of Disha Ravi have been followed by a wave of international indignation: among the thousands of supporters of Indian Greta there is also Meena Harris, granddaughter of the US Vice President, Kamala, who had already deployed on Twitter alongside the farmers .
