MEXICO: Progress in ranch investigation marred
Mexico’s public security minister, Omar García Harfuch, announced a key arrest in relation to a major case on 24 March. He stated that authorities had detained an individual suspected of being responsible for a cartel training centre at Rancho Izaguirre in Teuchitlán, Jalisco state, which has gained notoriety in recent weeks after being discovered by a local search collective earlier this month [WR-25-10]. However, a disagreement over the terms used to describe the site has detracted from this breakthrough, with activists complaining that the government is focusing on semantics rather than prioritising the search for the cartel’s potential victims.
