Mexico: Caught Between Bullets and Neglect: Lack of Protection for Defenders of the Territory in the Tarahumara Sierra

Amnesty International documented the case of Rarámuri defender Julián Carrillo who was killed in October 2018 despite having protection measures from the Mechanism for the Protection of Human Rights Defenders and Journalists.
