Who was ‘El Pancholín’, the renowned artist who was shot dead?
Francisco Javier Quijada, better known as “El Pancholín”, was a famous Mexican performer who caused a sensation in the early 2000s thanks to his great talent and charisma. This is thanks to the fact that he began his career at an early age, thus becoming a child star who quickly won the hearts of the public.
Although he had been away from public life for several years, as a result of the abrupt change in his life that he experienced when he was accused of working as a hitman, he was still remembered by those who admired his talent in the past. Proof of this are the farewell messages that have appeared on social networks, where dozens of people lamented this crime.
According to initial reports, the incident occurred in the Providencia neighborhood, where the artist was intercepted by armed men while returning home with his wife. There, he was allegedly shot repeatedly, causing his death instantly because one of the bullets went through his head.
At the time of his death, “El Pancholín” was 36 years old, thus ending his life and the great successes he had sown in the past, when he had the opportunity to collaborate even with figures of the stature of Valentín Elizalde, who ironically, also died in a direct attack in 2006.
