"Amnesty International is appealing for the release from prison of Leonard Peltier, an Anishinabe-Lakota Indian, who is serving two consecutive life-sentences for the murders of two Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents.
Although he has not been adopted as a prisoner of conscience, there is concern about the fairness of the proceedings leading to his conviction"
