Judge Orders Yucatán Market Leader to Face Prosecution for Threats Against Two Journalists

FEADLE presented evidence that led to the ruling, with a ban on contact to protect the reporters.

Overview

  • Carlos Guadalupe “K,” who leads the San Benito Market tenants’ union in Kanasín, was linked to process for the crime of threats against two journalists.
  • Investigators say the intimidation followed the journalists’ publications about their reporting in Kanasín.
  • The judge imposed a precautionary measure prohibiting the accused from approaching the victims.
  • FEADLE, attached to the FGR’s human rights unit, initiated the case and supplied the proof supporting the court action.
  • In a separate SSP patrol in Progreso’s Flamboyanes district, officers detained a 27-year-old man and a 38-year-old woman for reciprocal aggression, provided on‑scene medical care without hospital transfer, and urged residents to report risks to 9-1-1.
