Lydia Cacho | Mexican journalist leaves country after death threats

August 22, 2012 — After leaving Mexico in a haste following a particularly chilling death threat on August 3, Lydia Cacho, winner of the 2007 IWMF Courage Award, spoke about the circumstances of her departure for the first time yesterday in a phone interview with the Spanish newspaper El País.
“There are people who think that the story of threats against me is getting old. I, too, am tired, very tired, of having to make public that I have been threatened again.”
