Bolivia: Fear for safety: Miguel Esteben González Bonilla (m)

On 27 February, a vehicle being driven by Miguel González was shot at by two men on a motorcycle. The shot narrowly missed him. González, regional director of the Centro de Estudios Jurídicos e Investigación Social (CEJIS), promoting the rights of indigenous and peasant communities, had been followed three days earlier. Following the recent attack he filed a complaint with both the authorities in the town of Trinidad. So far, no protection has been provided. Amnesty International is seriously concerned for Miguel González's safety.
