Over the last six years, rising violence related to the Mexican government’s combat of narco-trafficking and the targeting of human rights defenders who denounce military abuses, led Mr. Barrera and Tlachinollan to condemn the excessive militarization in the state of Guerrero. Mr. Barrera and his colleagues work under constant threat for reporting abuses, which have included forced disappearances, rape, arbitrary detentions, intimidation, dispossession of lands and illegal interrogations of community members. In May of 2009, in response to the situation faced by defenders, the Inter-American Court issued protective measures for 107 human rights defenders, including every member of Tlachinollan’s staff. In October of 2010, Tlachinollan's accompaniment of the cases of Inés Fernández Ortega and Valentina Rosendo Cantú obtained a precedent-setting Inter-American Court decision condemning the Mexican military for the rape and torture of Inés and Valentina and requesting a series of reforms to ensure civilian oversight of investigations of military abuses.
