[ Subject Matter: Narco Surveillance Network used to spy on the Army
Recommendation: No prior subject matter knowledge required]


Reporter: Proceso Redaction and Benjamin Flores
State Police of the Tamaulipas Force, dismantled in Reynosa, a system of narco espionage, of organized criminals that consisted of a circuit of cameras installed in this Town.

The Tamaulipas Group for Coordination informed in a communication that the network was installed at 52 points of high impact to carry the data from 39 cameras operating via the internet, with which they carried out surveillance of the actions of the State and Federal Forces of security, as well as the civilian population.

The dismantling took place Monday and Tuesday past by elements of the Tamaulipas Force, with support of the Military who provided security at the places where State Police retired the apparatus.

During the operation to retire the devices, members of a criminal group that operate in this frontier Town, on realizing the network was being dismantled, retreated and switched off 18 cameras on the network.


The majority of the cameras were installed on electricity and telephone poles belonging to the Federal Commission of Electricity (CFE), and Mexican Telephones.

The 52 points of narco espionage dismantled were located opposite installations of the Eighth Military Zone, Marina, PGR and Tamaulipas Force, like the Avenue Villa Dorada, Morelos Boulevard, Luis Donaldo Colosio Boulevard, Las Fuentes Boulevard, in commercial centres and fraccionamientos.



The video cameras have the capacity to transmit wired or wirelessly, and sent through the internet via telephone lines and or cable services. They have in addition, modems, video, encoded data to video cards, and electric cables.

In the Las Fuentes Colonia, in the Aztlan section, were found five points of "halcon", with each point being able to handle five incoming camera feeds. Officials indicated that the video system belongs to the Cartel del Golfo.

      In mexico 90% the police are the bad guys, but they act under orders of 10% of them who are their commanders who are worse and the real devil.
      --That the narcs can have cameras and surveillance like that is proof that the police are incompetent, corrupt, expensive, exploited, and that the state steals all the money...

      A cartel is when various organizations work together.like Escobar and the Gavirias and Gacha and the Ochoas that is cartel.in Mexico there were cartels but now there's mostly drug gangs. The cds is the only organization that can be called a true cartel like the ones in the old days

      Arellano Felix were the real entrepreneurs in the drug business. Suitcases of millions of dollars a week were sent to highly regarded politicians. The Arellanos made their own Cartel from ground up. They didn't care if they had government boost or not.

    TORNADO LEAVES FLOOD AND DESTRUCTION IN ACUÑA COAHUILA

    tornado touched down in colonia alto de santa peresa and santa rosa about 5AM
    this is the area when you drive to the soriana and go left

    lightning storms last night.

    flooding in that area is from new construction water line split, not from rain, which is light.

    cell phones are jammed
    landlines are problematic
    electric out city wide

    best to use skype

      I live in Mexico and I see about the same percentage or more users than in the USA. Time to quit passing the blame when drugs are being used everywhere. Many people have an excuse and many blame their problems on something else. Time for people to take the bull by the horns and take care of the problems here, The USA has their own demons, and they are not responsible for the problems in Mexico. It is like the Blacks in the USA that still blame their problems on slavery. After awhile it gets old.

      Not all blacks blame their issues on slavery just like not all Mexicans blame their problems on the drug trafficking violence. It's a small very small percentage that do. That wasn't a very good analogy 2:19pm.

      The answer is quite complex if you really want truthful answer. Wikipedia probably want tell the truth if you look it up. I think it's a combination of the bible thumpers and the US goberment (and yes I said goberment) wanting more tax dollars from the selling of alcohol. That's my opinion.

    The mexican governing narco-mierdocracia exploits the narcs, they have much more power, they also enjoy the propaganda machine that demonize their employees, narcos and criminals of all sizes and arrests them once in a while...
    --The mexican governing narco-mierdocracia will even fabricate narcs out of poor students or political activists after they have been murdered and disappeared or both, AND will fabricate guilty parties in case somebody doubts or proves their "historical truths" are nothing but a pack of lies...

    The United States better start looking for these surveillance networks too. I don't think these guys care which side of the line they are on. They think they own it all.
