Claudia Tacoronte Aguilera murdered in Morelos, Mexico FAST-MOVING

Claudia Tacoronte Aguilera, a 21-year-old Spanish student from the University of Granada, was murdered on Saturday, September 12, in Cuautla, Morelos, Mexico. Tacoronte, a student of Early Childhood Education, was in Mexico as part of an academic exchange program with the Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos (UAEM).

The attack occurred near the Casa de la Cultura in Cuautla. Preliminary investigations by the Morelos Prosecutor's Office suggest the victim was attacked with a sharp weapon during a suspected robbery. The case is being investigated under the femicide protocol to determine if gender-based motives were involved.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed that the federal government is providing full support to Morelos authorities, with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in contact with the Spanish Consulate. The University of Granada has expressed profound condemnation and held a minute of silence to honor the student. The UAEM has also called for an exhaustive investigation with a gender perspective to ensure justice.
