Border News: Crime is Winning; Head Found; Raffle Prizes; 21 Bodies Found

MEXICO DF (El Sol de Mexico, Guillermo Ríos, 6/10/11) - The Mexican Government has an inaccurate diagnosis of how organized crime operates in Mexico and therefore its strategy is wrong. You must change it or what follows will be the disappearance of individual guarantees warns the specialist in organized crime and violence in Mexico. The ex-prosecutor General of the Republic, Alfonso Navarrete Prida, proposed that the PGR disappear and becomes two agencies. At the same time, Doctor Luis Alejandro Astorga Almanza, of the Institute of Social Research (IIS) of the UNAM and a specialist in security, pointed out that drugs are still the main business of organized crime in Mexico and violence gives rise to its own struggle between these groups of mafias. For his part, Dr. Eduardo Guerrero Gutiérrez, consultant in the area, pointed out that the alternation of power, the constant changes of police chiefs and the policy of arrests are what has triggered the violence in Mexico. Within the framework of the International Conference on "Security and Justice in Democracy", at the UNAM School of Medicine, Alfonso Navarrete Prida, who is currently a Deputy Federal to the State of Mexico, noted that contrary to what is thought, criminal groups in Mexico have evolved into mafias and are getting stronger, to the weakening of the institutions. "The Government must change its strategy. The PGR should disappear and become two specialized prosecutors, one for internal affairs and one devoted to the combat of organized crime." Navarrete Prida questioned why there have not been results in the fight against organized crime when this fight already claimed the lives of nearly 40,000 people, and the number of addicts reaches half a million. You have made blows to criminal organizations and the violence does not go down. The political infighting continues and the drug market consumption goes up. According to UN figures, they remain stable. The production of poppy and marijuana remains and the legislature has given all the support and budget to the federal executive. In the last 5 years, it has increased the budget by 400%. "What one thing remains, the disappearance of individual rights and enacting of States suspension of guarantees, because there is not much else to do." The reflection should be made in analyzing what we are fighting or what is happening with the violence or the control of the plaza or a combination of both. If in the Northern States, they are focusing on violence in municipalities, where the conditions of institutional weakness are so alarming that one can think it is enabling the growth of local organizations. Is it worth the penalty? In my State all these local organizations - Los Zetas, La Línea, Los Aztecas with an intention is to smuggle drugs into the United States of America". For its part, the investigator of the IIS of the UNAM, Luis Alejandro Astroga Almanza noted that organized crime now has a new composition. The leaders of the three major cartels have the drug business. They are "the Gulf, the Pacific and Los Zetas" groups. These groups generate 70% of the violence. "The question is, what role groups and businessmen play in this fight against organized crime. The business elite of Monterrey were not concerned that the most of the 'bosses' and their families lived there. They became concerned when they began to kill but they were already settled. My insistence is to 'review with a magnifying glass' what is happening in every part of the country". The specialist Eduardo Guerrero Gutiérrez said the changes of power, the changes of police chiefs and the policy of arrests, is what detonates violence in Mexico. The Government of Mexico, he said, has to establish local programs to deal with violence in a targeted manner, because in each locality violence has different nuances.
