Update: Ta Phong Tan Off Hunger Strike, Still in Solitary Confinement

Imprisoned blogger and former police officer, Ta Phong Tan, who is serving ten years for her peaceful activism, began a hunger strike on May 13th. We’ve recently learned that Tan ended the strike on June 4th and is reportedly no longer in a critical health condition. However, Tan remains in solitary confinement and continues to press for better treatment of prisoners.
