Mexico City. When supporting the request of the 32 state leaders to the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation to ratify the possibility of informal preventive detention, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador affirmed that approving the change in this area could translate into greater impunity, for which urged the ministers to reconsider their decision. However, based on his recent performance, he considered that it will be difficult for him to be modified.
He recalled that a few days ago, a judge ordered the release of a very famous criminal
in a matter of hours from certain elements, which they did by releasing them in the early hours of the morning, something they do not do in other cases, as it shows that they feel untouchable. That is why it is good that the governors are aware of this and demanding a responsible attitude from the Court, because they are the ones who suffer. And not only the governors and agents of public ministries and prosecutors; the police.”
On the other hand, he reported that the rise in violence in Zacatecas is due to the fact that 26 people from criminal groups were arrested. They detained a group and there was a response, they burned some cars
. He asserted that the level of violence and homicides in the entities is linked to drug consumption, as occurs with particular virulence in Guanajuato, Every time I hear about the growth in consumption in Guanajuato it had to do with low salaries in the maquilas, and the confrontations between gangs are due to the sale of drugs, and that is what produces more homicides.
.
In a conference, he said that this situation is reproduced in other entities with high levels of violence, which is why he considered it imperative to control the level of drug consumption and serve young people to offer them school and work opportunities.
He stated that in security, If the same strategy continues, more progress will be made, because what we are doing takes time to produce results. In other words, we are already achieving results
