“Nov. 28, 2024 marked the second anniversary of the murder of journalist Wilder Alfredo Córdoba, who was shot and killed at the age of 35 in the municipality of La Unión, in the department of Nariño, Colombia.
His death, perpetrated by armed men who intercepted him while he was riding a motorcycle, remains an unpunished act that generates consternation both in the community and in the journalistic profession.
Córdoba's murder, which occurred in the El Salado sector, shocked the region and Colombia, especially because the journalist was committed to the defense of human rights and carried out his work in a critical and courageous manner in a context of high risks for journalists."
