In Teocaltiche, Jalisco, representatives of a local group have made an urgent call to the federal government for support to address the security crisis plaguing the municipality. Despite local administrative efforts, violence persists, and the population demands justice, protection, and immediate solutions.
José Luis Pereira, secretary of the group, has emphasized the need for a thorough investigation to find those responsible for the recent violent events. The community has suffered not only criminal acts but also forced displacements due to violence, reflecting the seriousness of the situation in Teocaltiche.
In previous years, multiple incidents related to crime have been recorded, including the arrest of police personnel for illegal activities. The recent wave of violence has involved the disappearance and murder of local police officers, as well as discoveries of criminal activities, such as the seizure of a warehouse containing stolen vehicles and items for illegal armor.
Faced with the lack of effective response from local authorities, the group 'Frente Teocaltiche por Nuestra Gente' has proposed the possibility of implementing a community police force to tackle insecurity. Despite the challenges and the pressure exerted, it is urgent to find concrete solutions to restore peace to the locality and ensure the safety of its inhabitants.
The situation in Teocaltiche has raised questions about the presence and effectiveness of law enforcement, as well as the emergence of self-defense groups in response to rampant violence. The community is desperately seeking effective measures to stop the wave of crime and provide the necessary protection to its citizens.
