Rejected petition Urge the Chechen government to stop the persecution of gay men in Chechnya.

The Chechen government won’t admit that gay men even exist in Chechnya, let alone that they ordered 'preventive mopping up' of people they deem undesirable. We urge immediate action to ensure their safety.
