Sandra Muhoza
Sandra Muhoza is a Burundian journalist who has gained international attention due to her arrest and subsequent sentencing for charges related to 'national integrity' and 'racial aversion.' She is currently facing a one-and-a-half-year prison sentence for allegedly making comments in a journalists' WhatsApp group that were deemed critical of the Burundian government. Human rights organizations have condemned her detention as arbitrary and called for her immediate release, citing irregularities in her trial and the use of vague laws to suppress dissent. Muhoza has been in custody since April 2024, reflecting broader concerns about media freedom and human rights in Burundi.
