SPW mourns the death of Diana Sacayán

1 Nov 2015


On October 14, the internationally known Argentinean trans activist Amancay Diana Sacayán was found dead in her apartment. She was the third Argentinean trans woman murdered since August. Her death means a major loss for the Latin American trans movement and has sparked expressions of indignation across the region and the world. SPW adds its voices to many others who called for consistent policy measures to prevent transphobic murders and for transparent police investigation and proper judicial measures to be taken.
