Zacatecas security elements located a clandestine grave with the remains of 10 people in the municipality of Luis Moya on Wednesday, according to authorities reported this Thursday.
The State Attorney General’s Office (FGJE) reported that a brigade made up of state and federal security corporations, as well as the Local Search Commission and the Specialized Prosecutor’s Office for Attention to Forced Disappearance of Persons, made the discovery.
The forensic staff of the General Directorate of Expert Services of the FGJE is carrying out studies and analyzes to identify the bodies located, with the aim of delivering them to their families.
The remains extracted from the “irregular burial area” present various states of conservation, some of which are already in skeletal reduction.
