IACHR, ACONUDH, and AI Condemn Death of Defenders

The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR), the Office of the High Commissioner of the United Nations Organization of Human Rights (ACONUDH) and Amnesty International (AI) have condemned the murder of Raúl Lucas Lucia and Manuel Ponce Rosas, defenders of fundamental indigenous rights in Guerrero.  Their bodies were found with signs of torture.  There is international pressure on Mexican authorities to find those responsible and hold them accountable.
