AL JAZEERA: Amnesty: Killing of Colombia activists result of failed policies

For years, Danelly Estupinan has received threats for her work as a human rights defender in the Pacific coastal city of Buenaventura.

In November 2015, she received a text message that read, “Danelly, you’re going to meet your end.” The same evening, while she was on a phone call with a United Nations official, a second voice intercepted with “now we know where you are.”
