Gunmen in Mexico have shot dead a Catholic priest who was an outspoken advocate for indigenous rights and who had condemned the violence plaguing his community.
Father Marcelo Pérez was killed after celebrating Mass in the southern state of Chiapas on Sunday, the prosecutor’s office said.
The Jesuit priest had spent almost two decades fighting for the rights of the Tzotzil indigenous group, of which he was a member.
The Jesuit Order said his murder should not be “minimised” as an isolated case - insisting it was part of the wave of violence that organised crime groups have unleashed in Chiapas.
Well it’s clear whose side God is on.
Why don’t we get Israel to invade Mexico?
