The grave is located in an abandoned house on Naranjo Street at the intersection with Cedro, and was located by members of the collective Corazones Unidos en Busca de Nuestros Tesoros (United Hearts in Search of Our Treasures) last Sunday, July 28, thanks to an anonymous report that arrived through their social networks.
The collective reported that the work at this site has been completed. “The process of the Paraísos del Colli grave is finished. We closed with 50 bags and three (bodies) in blankets in total”, formed the collective that searches for missing persons.
The human segments were transferred to the Forensic Medical Service where they will have to be analyzed to establish the number of victims and their possible identification.
Data from the Special Prosecutor’s Office for Missing Persons indicate that from January to the end of last July, human remains of 68 victims were found in 14 clandestine graves located in different parts of the Guadalajara metropolitan area.
