Alarm bracelet built to protect activists
Swedish group develops personal alarm system for journalists and rights activists working in dangerous areas.

The killing of a Russian journalist has inspired a Swedish human rights group to develop a personal alarm system for activists in danger.
The group hopes the bracelet, designed to endure an assault and send a distress signal by the wearer or if removed by force, will help protect those working in high-risk areas.
