Request for Prayer and Action: Theft of sensitive information - Justapaz

June 14, 2007

On June 14, 2007, computers containing sensitive information were stolen from Justpaz, a Mennonite Church Canada partner peace agency in Colombia. The computer files contained details on murdered and tortured victims of guerrilla groups and people displaced by violence. The theft will again increase levels of threat and danger for those documented individuals who remain alive.

Mennonite Church Canada Witness has prepared a documentation package that congregations and individuals can use to advocate on behalf of Colombians caught in this situation, below. Included is a template letter advocates can use to send to their elected representatives.
