We call for the immediate release of our TEAM leader, BKMU members and migrant workers. The court 5 day remand order for the union leaders was issued without evidence & violates Article 48 of our Constitution. The rights to organise, peaceful strike are fundamental rights.

✊On #HumanRightsDay, union leaders and workers in the #Maldives were arrested for standing up for fishers’ right to fair wages. ⚠️Protest is not a crime. Solidarity is not illegal. #ForDemocracy @itucasiapacific @TEAMmaldives

We are proud @TEAMmaldives & @FishermensUnion welcome migrant workers as members, supporting them in their struggle for fair treatment and an end to discrimination. It is imperative that their human rights are fully respected. Release all workers Now! #HumanRights

Maldives Police have brutally arrested striking migrant workers near Malé — workers who were peacefully demanding a fair price for their clean catch. We call for their immediate release and for authorities to open dialogue instead of using force. #WorkersRights #Maldives @iufap

The Maldives government must uphold its obligations and ensure that all workers, without discrimination, can raise their rights freely and without fear and reprisal. #OurUnionOurPower #humanrights

By arresting members who were peacefully protesting the Maldives government is in violation of the internationally guaranteed human rights as well as its own commitments. @OHCHRAsia

TEAM & BKMU also emphasised - the hotel resorts should be sourcing their supply of food from local fishers & supporting the local economy.

BKMU members gathered on December 10 to mark National Fisherman's Day, to bring attention to the struggle of fishers, demanding fair price for their catch, to earn a decent income, one that allows them to support themselves and their families with dignity.

Good morning world 🌍 We, the yellowfin tuna catchers of Maldives, are protesting near Malé from 60 fishing boats, demanding the government fulfill its promise of a fair, sustainable price. We urge the President to meet us for negotiations. @MMuizzu #Maldives #WorkersRights
