On 11 May 1996, an anonymous message containing death threats was
discovered in the mailbox at the home of journalist Rodolfo F.
Pena. It is suspected that the threat is connected to the work of
Pena, who is a reporter for the daily “La Jornada” as well as
part of the daily’s publishing group.
This is not the first time that Pena has been the target of death
threats. Approximately seven years ago, during a wave of
harassment against critical thinkers, Pena was threatened in a
similar manner as this most current incident.
