Madrid, Mexico City metros face passenger confrontations

A video recorded on a Madrid Metro carriage showed two evangelical preachers delivering loud messages about love, blessings and Jesus. A passenger rose to object, telling them, "Si me amas, no me molestes," and argued that riders should not be forced to listen to sermons during their commute. The clip sparked a debate online over the limits of religious proselytising in public transport.

In Mexico City, a man entered a women‑only carriage of the STC Metro claiming to be an "inspector" and showing a purported credential. Passengers challenged his presence, prompting Metro officials to state that the incident has been forwarded to the appropriate department for verification and that surveillance will be increased. The authority warned users to report any misuse of restricted areas.
