the Mexican Prosecutors announced Monday that the corpses of twelve men, ten men and two women, min abandoned trucks in a rural area of the central state of San Luis Potosí, which is being demolished by drug cartels.
The state attorney clarified that Along with the bodies was a text message signed by a gang.
He did not reveal the content of the message or give details about the causes of death of the victims. Their names were not made public.
Several gangs operate in the state of San Luis Potosí, including the Setas cartel and the Nueva Generación de Jalisco cartel.
January to August 411 people died in the state, according to official figures. The number of homicides increased by 43% compared to the corresponding period of 2019.
For more than a decade and a half, Mexican authorities strive to limit violent action by cartels with large-scale military and police operations, without success. It is estimated that the action of the cartels and the so-called “war on drugs” in Mexico has cost the lives of some 300,000 people since 2006, while the fate of tens of thousands of people who have “disappeared” is unknown.
