Peter Dahlin

Peter Dahlin is a Swedish human rights activist and co-founder of the China Human Rights Lawyers Concern Group. He is known for his work advocating for legal reforms and protecting individual rights in China. In 2016, Dahlin was detained by Chinese authorities, accused of activities threatening national security, a charge many view as politically motivated. His detention drew international attention and highlighted China's approach to handling foreign and domestic human rights advocates. Dahlin was released later and continues to speak about human rights issues, emphasizing the importance of legal protections and civil liberties worldwide.
