“Sol Prendido” for Borderland Beat
The corpse of a man hanging on a vehicle bridge located on the Rioverde highway, was done by criminal groups to “heat up the plaza”, warned Alejandro Leal Tovías, deputy secretary of the Public Security, Prevention and Social Reinsertion Commission of the State Congress.
In an interview, the legislator recalled that last week, the Secretary of Security and Citizen Protection (SSPC) warned about the intention of criminal groups to take over San Luis Potosi’s territory.
“The unfortunate event that everyone knows about today, of a young man hanging there on a bridge. Unfortunately, this hadn’t been seen here for several years now. “
He trusted that the issue will be discussed at the Security Round Table in order to take measures to prevent the repetition of such events that undermine the tranquility of the population of Potosí. “We must be patient because they are organized crime groups that sometimes do not have faces, and it is very difficult to locate them.”
In the first four months of 2023, the State Attorney General’s Office (FGE) initiated 154 investigation files for intentional homicide, according to the updated report of the Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System (SESNSP).
