After vanishing last October, human rights activist and lawyer Sandra Estefana Domínguez Martínez and her husband Alexander Hernández have been discovered buried in hidden graves where their bodies were unearthed last week in Mexico's Santiago Sochiapan, Veracruz —a five-hour journey from their Oaxaca home.

Before her disappearance, Domínguez had lodged official complaints against government figures, including one Donato Vargas Jimenez who served as 'Social Peace Coordinator.' She accused these officials of sharing explicit images of Indigenous Ayuuk women, including pictures of herself, through a WhatsApp group rife with misogynistic content.
