# FREE BK 16
The “Bhima Koregaon case” (BK16) is one of the most blatant instances of repression on democratic rights defenders in the country. Sixteen activists, academics, advocates, authors and cultural artists have been imprisoned since 2018 for defending the rights of those repressed by the government. Their imprisonment was justified on the basis of fabricated evidence. The 84 year old Father Stan Swamy was the first one of the 16 to pay with his life. The Adivasi rights activist died in jail due to medical negligence in July 2021.
