"The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) issued Resolution 61/2021 on Aug. 11, 2021, by which it granted precautionary measures in favor of Miguel de los Ángeles Mora Barberena, after considering that he is in a serious and urgent situation of risk of irreparable damage to his rights. According to the request, Mr. Mora continued to be in a situation of risk given his profile as a journalist and the expressed intentions to participate in the next elections as a presidential candidate. In this regard, the request indicated that he was the object of attacks and is currently detained and held incommunicado from his family and lawyers."
