"The military police murdered Isac Tembé twice: they killed him and then tried to kill his memory."

------

Last Friday, Isac Tembé left his home on the Alto Rio Guama Indigenous Territory to go hunting nearby with a group of friends. He never returned. The young Indigenous leader was murdered; shot point-blank in the chest by a member of Brazil's military police, on his own land.

This case illustrates the blurring of Brazilian agribusiness and state-sponsored terror on Indigenous lands, which has sharply exacerbated under the Bolsonaro regime.

Isac Tembé's murder reveals a tragic reality faced by Indigenous land defenders in the Brazilian Amazon, whose lands and lives are increasingly targeted by a range of criminal actors with implicit support from the federal government.
