Mexico mothers locate bodies, call for prosecutor's resignation

In Zacatecas, the mothers' group "Las Escarabajo" uncovered four bodies in clandestine graves on a rural property in Jerez after two days of searching. Forensic teams transferred the remains to the state medical service for DNA identification. The same week, an armed clash in Jiménez del Teúl between police, military forces and alleged CJNG members resulted in the capture of eight suspects.

In the Mexicali valley of Baja California, activists from "Madres Unidas y Fuertes" reported that up to 44 skeletal remains have been found in the Miguel Alemán area. The group accuses prosecutor María Elena Andrade of failing to conduct DNA tests and demands her resignation, urging an independent investigation into the disappearances while seeking basic supplies for search volunteers.
