Overview
- Silvia Rocío Delgado García filed complaints at the Chihuahua electoral institute accusing activist Miguel Alfonso Meza and directors of 14 outlets of gender-based political violence.
- Meza says the tax authority and a telephone company refused to share his data as confidential, but Meta provided his cellphone and email, which he alleges reached Delgado.
- The activist contends he was not formally notified of the case and learned of it weeks later through an attorney.
- Rights groups warn the 2020 gender-violence framework is increasingly used against journalists and critics, with swift sanctions that can chill debate.
- Delgado won a June judicial election with 23,605 votes after past work on Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán’s defense drew scrutiny from Defensorxs and media investigations.
