Amnestity and other international groups, I can see them getting involved and highlighting cases like this but it is not up to some bored film star to decide how sentences are carried out in other countries with such different ideas and cultures.

But, and I haven't read up on this because as I said earlier, I don't want to know the details, normally in cases like this, it is the groups like Amnesty International who highlight it and THEN celebs get involved and then the Govt. That's how these things get changed. Without the support of the celebs and the govt and the general public, there would be nothing Amnesty would be able to do about these things!
It's a two way street.
