A recent study from Christian Solidarity Worldwide has documented significant threats to religious liberty in Mexico, identifying drug cartels and indigenous community leaders as the main perpetrators of persecution. According to the research, Protestant Christians face the highest risk of becoming targets of religious persecution in the country.
The organization emphasized the need for accountability and protection for victims, stating: “Perpetrators must be brought to justice, and victims must be given confidence that reporting their experience will result in protection from further violations.”
The findings highlight ongoing challenges to religious freedom in Mexico, where faith-based communities continue to face intimidation and violence from various sources.
