Update on the Case of Mazatec Anarchist Miguel Peralta
In Eloxochitlán de Flores Magón, deep in the Sierra Mazatec mountains, there is no forgetting and there is no surrender. There is memory, rage, and a community that doesn’t ask for permission to exist. In the face of a system of “justice” that seeks to destroy the community, the response has been resistance and solidarity, weaving the pathway of freedom.
For more than a decade the community of Eloxochitlán de Flores Magón has been standing up to institutional racism, wresting from the state little by little what belongs to them: freedom. Because nothing has been a gift. Everything achieved has been through struggle in the streets, in front of the court houses, in the tribunals, in front of the prisons, in the protest encampments that resist attrition, in the autonomous spaces, collectives, and individuals who have joined the call for freedom.
As is already well-known, this case derived from manipulation. It was fabricated from the positions of power of Elisa Zepeda, Manuel Zepeda, the Public Prosecutor of Huautla, and an entire network of interests of the government of Oaxaca in 2014. It was not an error, but rather a strategy.
And nonetheless the community and many others who are part of this struggle continue resisting.
Today, April 30, we remember the day that Miguel was detained. Twelve years ago, they snatched from him his freedom. Today, more than 12 years later, despite favorable rulings, the legal situation remains bleak.
On February 20, 2026, the First Collegiate Court of Oaxaca, which in 2023 issued a timid ruling, recognized this time what we have always sustained: this is a fabricated case with witnesses planted for personal interests in exchange for political favors. This victorious sentence is historic because it also recognizes that the testimony of Elisa Zepeda is implausible.
On March 3rd, the Third Circuit Court—the same that revoked Miguel’s freedom in 2022—was obligated to recognize his innocence against all accusations, confirming that the crimes of homicide and attempted homicide do not exist.
What has been achieved isn’t a favor granted by the system, but the result of years of struggle, of refusing to remain silent, of refusing to give up.
Recently, the State Congresswoman Elisa Zepeda has been moving her pieces with cold calculation, activating her networks of influence and her financial machinery of misinformation to try to consolidate her lies and position herself. She has filed an appeal with the Supreme Court against the recent resolution from the Collegiate Court in Oaxaca, despite lacking the standing to do so. The Supreme Court already ruled on the case and the State Congresswoman never before presented an appeal to defend the arguments that she is now putting forth. She lost that opportunity. Furthermore, according to the constitution, there is no issue on which the Supreme Court can rule. The Collegiate Court only did what the Supreme Court ordered them to do in 2024.
The decision on whether or not to proceed with Elisa Zepeda’s appeal falls on the President of the Supreme Court, Hugo Aguilar Ortiz. Since there are no legal or sociopolitical grounds for granting yet another judicial favor for the cacique family, the appeal must be dismissed.
Yet, we are not ignorant of the relations of power and influence that exist between Elisa Zepeda Lagunas, her lawyers from the organization Litigio Estratégico Indígena, and the President of the Supreme Court, Hugo Aguilar Ortiz. We are not ignorant of the Mexican State’s ongoing war against Indigenous community organization, autonomy, and territorial defense. If the appeal proceeds at the Supreme Court, we know that it is a consequence of these relations of power and influence, and not of any legal merit.
Regardless of the outcome, the resistance will continue. We know that this still isn’t over.

La estrategia más usada contra los defensores de la tierra es un expediente fabricado. Hoy, la comunidad mazateca respira un poco más tranquila. Miguel Peralta fue absuelto de un delito inventado. Pero fue a medias, la lucha aún continúa.

New Ruling on the Case of Anarchist Miguel Peralta
On February 20, the court in Oaxaca again ruled on an appeal in the case of our compañero and friend, Miguel Peralta Betanzos.
For more than 12 years the Mazatec people have resisted and countered the cacique attacks against their territory and community.
On Friday, the First Collegiate Court for Criminal and Labor Matters in the State of Oaxaca issued a “partial” ruling on the case:
ABSOLVING Miguel of the charge of attempted homicide.
LEAVING OPEN HIS PROCESS for the charge of homicide.
In both cases, the arguments provided by the legal defense and the evidence were more than sufficient to not only understand Miguel’s innocence but also to demonstrate the absurdity, capriciousness, and arrogance of the accusations of the cacique Zepeda Lagunas family against members of the community assembly.
- To all those who have supported and shown their solidarity, we appreciate your presence and attention!
- To the legal defense who have put so much sweat, effort, and determination into this case, thank you so much!
- To those who have provided psychosocial support and helped us out of trouble, much love and gratitude!
- To our anarchist comrades who have shown solidarity and selflessness, contributing to many initiatives and ideas, you will always be our accomplices!
- To the anthropological team that produced a valuable expert report, here we continue!
- To the free, self-managed, pirate, and autonomous media projects that have contributed and helped bring this history to different places, we are forever grateful!
- To all those who have put their effort and heart into this—whether as organizations or individuals—our infinite gratitude. You are always in our thoughts and you can count on us!
- And of course, the Mazatec people and families who have received us, although we don’t speak their language, infinite reciprocity!Thanks for being here and continuing, the struggle never ends.
Eloxochitlán and Miguel, always free!
May the mountains have our backs.
Yorch always present in our hearts and actions.

Prison, Persecution, and Resistance. The Case of Miguel Peralta Betanzos
"I think that persecution is often something we don’t talk about as much in the struggle, as we are often thinking more specifically about physical imprisonment. But for compas who are being persecuted, or living on the run, it is difficult to articulate it all, every emotion. It is somewhat like existing without a clear identity. Being on the run means living constantly with tension. Being on the run means not sleeping well. Being on the run means living daily uncertainty, with the constant risk of being detained. Many things can happen along the way.
Regarding the legal resolutions, or how our legal process has progressed over the last decade. We, or at least I, have always doubted the system of justice in Mexico, in Oaxaca, in Huautla. We have always fought for our freedom with resistance, with the struggle of our community of Eloxochitlán, with the struggle of the compañeros and compañeras who have resisted day after day, in the city, in the streets, in the community, always raising their voices, always putting their bodies on the line and showing solidarity with other struggles."

Call for Solidarity with Miguel Peralta Betanzos Continues
The three months given to the Collegiate Court of Oaxaca to resolve the appeal in case 631/2022 of politically persecuted anarchist, Miguel Peralta Betanzos, has come and gone. As is custom, the state doesn’t fulfill its own rules, further wearing down and tiring out those who are facing legal cases, their family members, communities, and compas. It now seems that the hearing and resolution from the court will come sometime in the final weeks of January or in February 2026. Although nor should we trust the state’s word.
It is important to highlight that this is one of the last remaining legal resources available for Miguel Peralta to free himself of the political persecution of the Mexican State. There are multiple possible results with this resolution. One is that his original 50-year sentence is confirmed. Another is that he is absolved of all charges and granted his absolute freedom. There is much at stake…
We continue calling on individuals, collectives, and organizations to show their solidarity with Miguel Peralta. Art, graphics, letters, communiques, events, street actions, everything and anything can add to the ongoing solidarity.
Absolute Freedom for Miguel Peralta!

🔥 Porque no olvidamos y seguimos exigiendo que todas y todos sean libres ya, compartimos un saludo y exigencia de libertad, que nos ha hecho llegar desde la persecución, nuestro compañero Miguel Peralta
💣 Hoy, 14 de diciembre, se cumplen ocho años de que la vida de muchas familias en Eloxochitlán de Flores Magón, Oaxaca, se vio trastocada una vez más por la impunidad que goza la familia caciquil partidista Zepeda Lagunas y aliadxs.
⛓️ Desde 2012, cuando ejercieron la violencia en contra de quienes se organizan en defensa de su autodeterminación, comenzó una larga lucha que ha llevado a más represión. Entre esos actos, se encuentra la constante persecución de las y los que no han sido sumisxs frente a ese poder.
🔥 Así, el día de hoy, continúan 7 compañeros presos, familias desplazadas y un compañero, Miguel Peralta, quien después de haber estado en prisión por casi cinco años, nuevamente la justicia indolente, le ha impuesto una sentencia de 50 años de prisión.
💣 Abajo todas las formas de prisión, incluidos todos los partidos políticos y su politiquerías!!
⛓️ ¡¡La libertad de nuestras y nuestros compañeros no está en negociación!! ¡¡Su prisión, persecución y condena es su criminalización por resistir!!
