The Media Law Forum (MLF) proudly announces that our dedicated legal assistance hotline has surpassed 500 calls, marking a major milestone in our relentless fight to safeguard freedom of expression, Media rights, and human rights in Sri Lanka.
📞 A Lifeline for Journalists & Human Rights Defenders
Launched on October 18, 2022, the MLF Hotline (+94 74 3070 888) was created to provide urgent legal intervention, judicial support, and case assistance for journalists, media professionals, and human rights activists facing intimidation, legal threats, or state repression.
Over the past months, the hotline has:
✅ Assisted journalists facing arbitrary arrests and harassment
✅ Provided legal representation in court cases involving press freedom violations
✅ Intervened in cases of censorship and media restrictions
✅ Supported human rights defenders targeted for speaking out
🚨 Legal & Judicial Interventions at the Forefront
Every call received is a story of resilience, a fight for justice, and a stand against oppression. Our legal experts have actively engaged in judicial interventions, emergency legal representation, and rights-based advocacy to ensure that media professionals can operate without fear.
With Sri Lanka facing growing threats to media freedom, the MLF Hotline has played a crucial role in ensuring immediate legal action and providing a safe platform for journalists to report violations.
