Mexico. The Kidnapping and Disappearance of Two Zapatistas in Chiapas Is Denounced

Statement from the University Front in Defense of the UACH (Autonomous University of Chiapas)

On April 24, 2025, our Zapatista compañeros José Baldemar Santiz Santiz and Andrés Manuel Santiz Gómez were violently detained and disappeared by a joint operation of state and federal forces and armed civilians in San Pedro Cotzilnam, Aldama, Chiapas.

We demand their immediate return alive and denounce this act of brutal repression against those who defend their right to autonomy, land and dignity.

We want them alive!

Stop the War Against the Zapatista Peoples!

You are not alone!

#Thailand: “The Royal Thai Police have asked the justice ministry to delay implementation of a law that guards against #torture and enforced #disappearances, saying officers need more time to prepare for it. Adopted by the Thai parliament in August, the law scheduled to take effect on Feb. 22 would require police and military officers to videotape and record interrogations of suspects in custody…. human rights advocates accused law enforcers of stalling.” | BenarNews benarnews.org/english/news/tha
