San Luis Potosí authorities launch security operations for San Judas Tadeo festivities

The Secretary of Security and Citizen Protection of San Luis Potosí, Jesús Juárez Hernández, announced security operations to manage the San Judas Tadeo festivities. The measures aim to prevent unauthorized street closures, illegal use of pyrotechnics, and clandestine dances.

Authorities will utilize Mixed Interinstitutional Operations Bases (BOMI), involving municipal police, the Mexican Army, and the National Guard. To identify unregulated events, the Cyber Police will conduct web patrols across social media and internet platforms.

Juárez Hernández emphasized that municipal authorities are responsible for issuing permits and providing security for authorized events. He warned that sound equipment used at unauthorized dances will be seized and noted that such unregulated gatherings often lead to public disturbances, including fights and drug consumption.
