The body of a renowned environmental activist has been found in a well in central Mexico two weeks after he went missing, officials say.
Homero Gómez, 50, managed a butterfly sanctuary in the town of Ocampo in Michoacán state, a region notorious for its violent criminal gangs.Prosecutors are still investigating the case. Rights groups had earlier said they feared that Gómez might have been targeted because of his fight against illegal logging, one of the activities that criminal gangs in the area are involved in.Gómez was last seen in person attending a meeting in the village of El Soldado on the afternoon of 13 January, and his family reported him missing the next day. Relatives told local media the conservationist had received threats from an organised crime gang.
isn't it time the international community did something about the gang situation in mexico-might have a positive knock-on effect on migration.
