El Salvador: AIDS worker in danger (991 words) |
 | Alfredo Valencia Palacios went into hiding for a while but he is now back carrying out his work. |
| Although this is the first denunciation received by Amnesty International regarding death threats to an AIDS worker, it is a disturbing development in the activities of death squads which allegedly have continued in the country since the end of the war in January 1992. |
| Amnesty International is urging the authorities to investigate the death threats against Wilfredo Valencia Palacios, to bring to justice those found responsible for the threats and to ensure his physical safety and that of all those involved in work related to education and dissemination of information on the prevention of AIDS. |
