| Nos preocupa la seguridad de Maria Luisa Garcia y Marisela Ortiz, dos defensoras de los derechos humanos, quienes pertenecen a la organización Nuestras Hijas de Regreso a Casa. Ellas y también los miembros de la Asociación Nacional de Abogados Democráticos (ANAD), han sido amenazados y acosados repetidamente. Desde el 10 de junio del 2007, ellos han recibido
correos electrónicos con insultos, amenazas y advertencias que paren su trabajo de derechos humanos en Ciudad Juárez y el estado de Chihuahua.
Más de 400 mujeres y niñas han sido asesinadas en Ciudad Juárez y la Ciudad de Chihuahua desde 1993. Aproximadamente uno de cada tres de estos asesinatos incluyó violencia sexual. Las personas que trabajan con
organizaciones como la de "Nuestras Hijas de Regreso Casa" y ANAD forman el
frente de la campaña para pedir verdad y justicia para las mujeres
secuestradas y asesinadas en Ciudad Juárez, y han elevado varios casos a la Comisión Interamericana de Derechos Humanos.
Como usted seguramente sabe, la oficina de Nuestras Hijas de Regreso Casa ubicada en Ciudad Juárez ha sido forzada ya tres veces desde octubre del 2006. Aparte de amenazas y asaltos, la intimidación también se ha utilizado
contra estos activistas. El 24 de octubre del 2003, unos hombres armados dieron el alto a su automóvil. Le apuntaron un arma a la cabeza, le pusieron
otra en la boca, y le dijeron: "Ahora vas a conocer lo que sufren las
muertas de Juárez".
Tales abusos contra individuos quienes se han dedicado a pedir justicia para las mujeres secuestradas y asesinadas en la frontera entre los Estados
Unidos y México ya no se pueden tolerar. Recuerde que los defensores y defensoras de los derechos humanos tienen derecho a llevar a cabo sus actividades sin restricción ni temor a las represalias, como dispone la
Declaración de las Naciones Unidas sobre el Derecho y el Deber de los Individuos, los Grupos y las Instituciones de Promover y Proteger los Derechos Humanos y las Libertades Fundamentales Universalmente Reconocidos.
La serie de atrocidades y crímenes cometidos contra la población y que son ya del conocimiento de innumerables organismos civiles, políticos y de derechos humanos, además de diversos medios progresistas de comunicación,
sólo incrementan el desprestigio en el que han venido cayendo las distintas administraciones federales y estatales.

| Justice for Human Rights Defenders in Ciudad Juarez and Chihuahua
Maria Luisa Garcia Andrade and Marisela Ortiz Rivera are members of Nuestras Hijas de Regreso a Casa (Our daughters return home). Since 10 June, they, and lawyers of the Asociacion Nacional de Abogados Democraticos (ANAD), National Association of Democratic Lawyers, have been receiving emails with insults, death threats and warnings to stop their human rights work. On 22 June, Marisela Ortiz received a text message on her mobile phone saying: disfruta de la vida mientras puedas ("enjoy your life while you can"). On 10 June, an ANAD lawyer received a message reading Tu seras eliminada ("You will be eliminated.")
The offices of Nuestra Hijas de Regreso Casa in Ciudad Juarez office have reportedly been broken into three times since October 2006. Cars belonging to members of the organization and ANAD lawyers have also been broken into three times. Documents and confidential material were reportedly stolen on several occasions. The latest incident happened on 20 June, when Maria Luisa Garcia’s car was broken into and documents relating to the 2001 murder of her sister, Lilia Alejandra Garcia Andrade (see Mexico: Intolerable killings) were stolen. When she reported the theft to the Chihuahua State Public Prosecutor’s Office (Procuraduria General de Justicia del Estado, PGJE), one of the officials reportedly said, ya me entere que nos volvieron a denunciar, porque no dejan las cosas por la paz, total manana apareces muerta, o yo muerto! ("I found out that you’ve complained about us again, why don’t you let things be? Either you’ll turn up dead tomorrow or I will!"), presumably in reference to other complaints made by Nuestras Hijas about the failure of the PGJE to investigate previous incidents.
Marisela Ortiz has suffered serious intimidation before now because of her work. On 24 October 2003 armed men stopped her car. They pointed a gun at her head and in her mouth and said, ahora vas a conocer lo que sufren las muertas de Juarez ("Now you’re going to find out what happens to the women killed in Juarez.") They also threatened her daughters, who were in the car with her and then let them go, but followed them in the car. The authorities have so far made no progress in finding the perpetrators. Tell authorities that these brave human rights defenders deserve justice.

Support Uganda Women
Hello,
I was stunned and brought to light on learning that your organisation fights the right of women. Well, I am the founder and initiator of the same
organisation in Uganda.
Uganda has been faced with a lot of abuses in Eastern and Northern Uganda where women, are raped, abused touchered in IDP camps, that is internally displaced camps.
To that effect, if the rights of such young and old are abused then we call for such organisations to come and join hands in effectively to bring both the Lords Resistance Army and the Government of Uganda to book. The International Human Rights to support us. My foundation
is called the Kamwada Foundation.
I will be grateful if our concern is taken into consideration in terms of
moral and any other support.
