JIQUILPAN, Mich. (appro) .- The struggles and purges within various "cells of organized crime" operating in Michoacán continue without respite, particularly in the municipalities adjacent to Jalisco, in areas known as the West and Ciénega de Chapala.

 

This Wednesday  in a truck were found the corpses of five men who showed signs of violence. It is presumed that the victims were narcomenudistin of the Jalisco Cartel Nueva Generación (CJNG).

At about 11:30 am the Police of Michoacán was informed of the presence of an abandoned car with several bodies inside it on a street in the Los Remedios community.

 

The uniformed people went to the place on the Cuauhtémoc Norte street, adjacent to the Jiquilpan-Villamar highway,where they inspected a gray Chevrolet Suburban truck, in apparent state of abandonment and in whose interior the bodies were found, which they turned over to the Prosecutor's Office Regional of La Piedad.

 Specialized experts carried out the removal of the bodies of five men with evident traces of violence, who were reportedly shot to death.

 

Some of the victims were half naked and had pieces of rope on their wrists and feet.

 

After the performance of the experts, the prosecutor in turn ordered the removal and transfer of the corpses to the Forensic Medical Service so that the autopsy required by law would be carried out, while the van was secured  and placed at the disposal of the corresponding authority.

 

It transpired that the victims would be narcomenudistas of a band known as "Los eloteros", serving the Jalisco Nueva Generacion cartel, who who were deprived of their freedom on Sunday 25 in the municipality of Villamar, a municipality near Jiquilpan and Zamora.
 

It should be noted that to date this year 602 have been executed in Michoacán due to the rivalry between at least 13 criminal cells operating in the state.
