militant des droits de la personne

CONT: Un militant des droits de la personne à qui les policiers reprochaient d'avoir utilisé son vélo comme une arme a été libéré des accusations portées contre lui hier. Une minute d'audience pour mettre un terme à un an et demi d'attente.

CONT: The French statement also spoke out against a four-year prison term handeddown to Shiva Nazar-Ahari, a human rights militant, who has also been sentenced to 74 lashes.
OBS: A militant, as a noun, is a person who uses militant methods in pursuit of an objective[7]; the term is not associated with the military. In general usage, a militant person is a confrontational person who does not necessarily use violence. Militant can refer to individuals or groups displaying aggressive behavior or attitudes.
