In Mexico City today, a corpse was found hanging from a downtown bridge.
As a result of the discovery in the Iztapalapa district, the Mexico City government increased security in the border areas of the metropolis and focused on reviewing security camera footage of the area, according to Mexican newspaper El Universal. Mayor Miguel Angel Mancera said, “Although I have avoided commenting on the possibilities of the young man’s death being an action by an organized crime group, I have expressed that the Attorney General will report any progress in the investigation.”
Despite these increased security measures, more corpses appeared in Mexico City alongside threatening messages, according to Time Magazine—another cartel hallmark.
Under public pressure, thousands of police hit the streets, arresting a 600 suspects. Among the suspects, prosecutors announced, was an alleged assassin involved in hanging the body. Evidence gathered, [top prosecutor Rodolfo Rios] said, indicated that the murders are linked to gangs inside Mexico City’s crowded jails.
With a population of almost 9 million people occupying 573 square miles, Mexico City offers cartel leaders and operatives plenty of space to avoid each other while relaxing or conducting administrative business. Since the earlier days of drug trafficking when there was only one major cartel, the capital has always been regarded as neutral ground between crime groups. In recent years, there have been reports of some cartels like La Familia Michoacana, and smaller crime groups like La Mano Con Ojos, engaging in trafficking and violent activity in the outskirts of the city. However, this was never perceived as a large threat to the peace in the capital.
