We always talk about the important events around the world, but it is also very important to consider the happenings in Mexico. Mauricio Fernández, the new Mayor in San Pedro Garza García in Monterrey, Nuevo León, has caused controversy since his campaign at first stating his plan to clean the city of all narcotraficants and kidnappers.
A week ago, in a public declaration, Fernández reinforced his commitment against organised crime and declared the murder of El Negro Saldaña(a high-profile narcotraficant) and 3 other people 5 hours before the authorities in DF even found the bodies. The video presented talks about how the Mayor of San Pedro will be called upon to declare how he got this information.
He first stated that the Governor has tipped him of, comment that the Governor exposed as untrue. Then he declared he had an iformant, but how could this have been possible if not even the police had knowledge of the murder? This declarations, along with his plan to guarantee peace in San Pedro have led some to believe he may be linked to a certain cartel, to the Beltrán Leyva Cartel, wih which he made a deal.
We have to wait and see how this issue is resolved.
