Amnesty Urges Swift Action as Search for Mariana Valeria Ibarra Intensifies in Guanajuato

Authorities are being pressed to act within the first 72 hours considered critical to finding missing women.

Overview

  • A Protocolo Alba notice was issued for Mariana Valeria Ibarra Ojeda, 19, who was last seen after leaving her home in colonia Esfuerzo Obrero in Irapuato to go to a nearby store.
  • Amnesty International publicly called on the Guanajuato prosecutor’s office and the state search commission to redouble efforts during the early window considered decisive.
  • The Hasta Encontrarte collective circulated her search poster and asked for citizen tips with assurances that information will be treated anonymously.
