Front Line is deeply concerned following reports received regarding death threats that have been recently made against human rights defender Fernando Ruiz Canales, the President of the non-governmental Consejo para la Ley y los Derechos Humanos – CLDH (Law and Human Rights Council). Fernando Ruiz Canales works with families that have been victims of kidnappings allegedly committed by members of the Mexican Armed Forces. Front Line previously issued an urgent appeal concerning threats against Fernando Ruiz Canales, on 21 January 2008.
