San Cristobal - Some 30 families who said they had received death threats, have fled the Mexican town of Chenalo near where 45 Tzotzil Mayans were massacred last month. A total of 109 Tzotzil Indians decided to leave their town in Chiapas because they said their lives had been threatened by members of the ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI).
Meanwhile, security for the state's controversial Bishop Samuel Ruiz has been increased following anonymous death threats.
