(April 24, 2014)—With
the correction made before the Executive Secretariat of the National Public
Security System, preliminary investigations open for that crime rose from 537
to 836 for 2013.
In Veracruz,
homicides and kidnappings are on the rise according to recent figures released
by the Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System, in the
latest report, this organization reported and had to modify their figures since
they failed to report the additional 299 intentional homicides in 2013.
With this, the
registered figures in the state increased by 53%, with the intentional homicide
figures rising from 537 to 836 for 2013.
According to the
analyst Alejandro Hope, the fact that Veracruz barely reported 299 homicides just
recently, is proof that the revised figures at national level have not been
completed and that the above mentioned “reflects instability in the
proportionate figures”.
The fact that
the figures are modified, Hope said, changes any basis for comparison, “for
example Veracruz initially reported that they had 48,000 preliminary
investigations in 2013, and in the new report from the Secretariat yesterday,
it reports that there were actually 72,000 preliminary investigations meaning
that there were 24,000 crimes committed, that were reported, and that were not
reported in due time.”
Elsewhere in the
report, the Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System detailed
that the kidnappings in Veracruz have increased 51.81% over the first quarter
of 2013 which goes from January to March.
In fact, in the
first three months of 2013, they had initiated 27 criminal investigations for
unlawful deprivation of liberty and during 2014, kidnappings increased to 41 in
the state.
According to the
Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System, kidnappings
nationwide have increased month by month in the first quarter of 2014 by more
than 7% and explains that the states with the largest number of victims are
Tamaulipas with 103, Michoacán with 72, the State of Mexico with 50, Morelos
with 46, and Veracruz with 42.
Intentional Homicide
On the report on
crime rate, you can observe that from February to March of 2013 there were 428
intentional homicides committed and during the same period but for 2014, there
were 547 intentional homicides registered.
The figures from
the Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System show that
during the first quarter of this year, there was a decrease of 12.21% compared
to the same period as last year.
In fact in the report
the Secretariat disaggregated between intentional and culpable the 8,345
homicides that occurred between January and March of this year.
This new
document shows that the total number of victims of intentional homicides that
go into this year is 4,497 with March being the month with the highest number
of people killed totaling 1,577.

That'll certainly improve the old crime stats.
ReplyDeleteNo news is good news.
ReplyDeletehow many solved homicides?
ReplyDeletenone i'm sure, the state and federal governments are sick of fabricating guilty parties, mainly because it doesn't get funny when they are caught.
right now they are correcting the nmbers because people has been talking about there being more murders than reported.
an improvement would be letting the people the develop their own community policing, or the people taking charge and developing their own communitarian autodefensas
FIDEL HERRERA BELTRAN, aka z1, former governor of the state of veracruz left behind a governor he could manipulate, a long legacy of corruption, and a state in the hands of the zetas.
ReplyDeletereportedly, herrera beltran wants to be mexican ambassador to Grease, maybe to keep on trafficking of gas and oil derivates, there is a family of Greasian i mean Greek, nationals in veracruz, that already do illegal traffic on gas and oil products, in mexico and the US, maybe FHB has plans to make more money until he can be candidate for president of the republic, after all he delivered for pena nieto, money, state and votes...
"Veracruz, rinconcito donde hacen su nido laz rataz y el golfo..." A Lara±
Zetas or CJNG?
ReplyDelete8:38 you know mexican politicians, most will take the money, and let both sides fight over it, wining is their pedo.
ReplyDeletesee: manelich castilla craviotto, el hombre que traiciono a los zetas, en san luis potosi, right in front of the face of zeta national police commissioner of mexico, enrique francisco galindo ceballos, sold the zeta plaza to el cds for ten million dollars, ICE agent Jaime Zapata got killed when the zetas allegedly confused his truck with Manelich's (by the way, Manelich Castilla Craviotto, another pawn of Carlos Slim Helu, on the federal police payroll, like Genaro Garcia Luna, top SSP)...
in mexico, you hire for security the security agents of Genaro Garcia Luna private security agency, or pay the kidnappers later, much like in the US, the moment any police organization is not happy about this or that, hell breaks lose, with shootings, arson, robberies and plain old shootings and murders, what can mexico expect?
ReplyDeletethe US protects their gorrillas, mexico and latinamerica can't have laws with any teeth...
maybe start electing PARALLEL GOVERNMENTS until they are ready to kick the usual satraps out, without confrontation and without cooperation, the dialog only produces more headaches and lenghty negotiations, for minimal to negative results.
--parallel government would put to shame the usual satraps from day one, and prepare the future leadership for tomarra...
