Migrants’ rights defender Santiago Rafael Cruz was murdered on 8 April in the office of the Foro Laboral del Obrero Campesino (Farm Labour Organizing Committee, FLOC), where he worked, in the town of Monterrey, in Nuevo Leon state, northeastern Mexico. The director of FLOC, Cástulo Benavides Rodríguez, and other staff members of the organization, may also be at risk of attack.
