Lilian Tintori is a Venezuelan human rights activist and the Director of the WLC Political Prisoners Support Team. She became a prominent voice for democracy following the 2014 arrest of her husband, opposition leader Leopoldo López, who was sentenced to nearly 14 years in prison on politically motivated charges. Since then, Tintori has led international efforts to advocate for political prisoners and human rights in Venezuela. She continues to play a central role in raising awareness about the country’s political crisis and in supporting those unjustly detained.
