Entorno a Tamaulipas (Tamaulipas) 3/25/08

Six presumed members of Los Zetas (hired guns of narco traffickers) who were arrested last December in Carmen, Campeche on numerous criminal charges have been formally confined to prison. The order was handed down by a federal judge in the state of Mexico at the request of the Federal Department of Justice. During the proceedings since their arrest, it was established that their presence in Campeche was to secure a center of operations for organized crime. With cases like this one, the Attorney General reiterated his promise to aggressively combat organized crime.

El Financiero (Mexico City) 3/25/08

A group of legislators from the Mexican Senate requested that the executive office initiate emergency operations to combat the public insecurity in the state of Oaxaca. On presenting the proposal today in the Senate, it was also requested that the governor of Oaxaca establish an emergency program to safeguard public security in his state.

President Felipe Calderon said he will intervene to halt the crime and growing violence that exists in the state. One of the senators stated, "The Oaxacan society lives in terror and with a deep feeling of insecurity and the violence is at all levels of society."

El Imparcial (Hermosillo, Sonora) 3/25/08

The Mexican House of Representatives has called for security measures against a perceived threat from followers of Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador who lost the hotly contested presidential election in 2006. At least 150 Federal Preventive Police are prepared to protect the chambers of government against demonstrators. Collected intelligence confirms a call made by Lopez Obrador to initiate a siege, beginning today, of the chambers by mostly women in order to call for "energetic reform." Said one legislator, "Threats from Lopez Obrador are every day, every hour in every way. It's not something that should worry any Mexican."
