As a leading human rights defender, she was elected municipal legislator in 2017. In her legislature, she was known for denouncing police violence against the poorest populations and had been named rapporteur of the recently-created commission that will monitor the federal military intervention in the area of public security in the state of Rio de Janeiro.<\/p>\n<p>In the country that kills the most human rights defenders, Marielle\u2019s murder must be investigated promptly. We demand a rigorous and impartial investigation into the circumstances of her death in order to identify and punish the perpetrators.<\/p>\n<p>May Marielle\u2019s strength and commitment continue as an inspiration for the much-needed work to promote and protect human rights in Brazil, in particular for the most underprivileged populations.<\/p>\n<p>To the families of Marielle and Anderson, we convey our deepest solidarity.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"tts__custom-position_bottom_fixed\" ><\/div>","excerpt":"<p>The Rio de Janeiro municipal legislator and human rights activist was shot in an
