In a book I'm translating, on December 31, 1994 a speaker makes the following statement regarding rumors of an uprising by "indios" in Chiapas: "Va a ser igual que el doce de octubre; no va a pasar nada."
I googled this date once before, and though I'd found something but can't find it again.
Can anybody help out?
Thanks

.... Fue el 12 de octubre de 1994 en San Cristóbal de Las Casas cuando formalmente se dio a conocer la Declaración de la Autonomía de los Pueblos Indios de Chiapas". (near the end of the page mentioned).

Oct 12, 1992: Ten thousand Mayan Indians marched in San Cristobal to protest the Mexican government's treatment of indigenous peoples on the official anniversary of Columbus's voyage to Latin America.
Jan 1, 1994 Zapatista rebel group (composed largely of Mayan Indians - appr. 2,000) took over the mayor's office in San Cristobal de las Casas in the state of Chiapas. Fifty-seven people were killed and 30 people were wounded in gunfire exchange with the guerilla groups. The group demanded land, financing of agricultural programs, education, and the release of "political prisoners". This date is the same day that the North American Free Trade Agreement between the U.S., Mexico, and Canada took effect.
while the first two links I included in my reference mentioned "1994". So it would be useful knowing which event exactly.
I guess it would be best to consult your client for clarification.
