Disturbing violence against political actors in Oaxaca

In Juchitán de Zaragoza municipality in Oaxaca, a disturbing episode of violence against legitimate political actors: The party headquarters of the Partido del Trabajo or Workers Party (PT) wee attacked by two masked gunmen just as the party leadership held a meeting with the campesino/peasant organization Unión Campesina de Oaxaca. One attendee was murdered and another injured in the hail of bullets

None have been apprehended for this atrocity, which is moreover an attack on democracy.
