They locate 104 migrants in the house of Acolman, Edomex
According to data from the INM, there are 95 Guatemalan citizens, 4 Salvadorans, 2 Colombians, 2 Ecuadorians and a Honduran, all with irregular stay in our country. Among the insured migrants there are several minors.
The operation, on Calle Rosas in Colonia Ampliación Los Ángeles Totolcingo, was carried out this Monday morning after the Secretary of Security of the State of Mexico received a citizen complaint to the C-5.
The Acolman Civil Protection Coordination warned that at least 45 of the migrants who were in the house have cough and flu, so they will remain under sanitary observation to rule out cases of Covid-19.
The first investigations indicate that the migrants had been in the house for several days, without food and that they were waiting for trucks to be transferred to the border with the United States.
… And they secure 76 migrants in NL
The INM located and secured 176 more migrants in Nuevo León, who were traveling in a bus and a van.
Through social networks, the body of the Ministry of the Interior reported that the migrants were traveling in overcrowded conditions.
He added that the foreigners are of seven different nationalities and that they were detected with the support of the Cadereyta Police.
The drivers of both vehicles, as well as the companion of one of them, whose names were not revealed, were made available to the Attorney General’s Office in Escobedo.
In recent days, the INM has secured dozens of migrants without a regular stay in the country who were seeking to reach the northern border.
Over the weekend, for example, 64 foreigners were insured who were abandoned in Monclova, Coahuila, inside the box of a trailer.
