Overview
- The Dec. 6 operation in the Ajusco area of Tlalpan yielded 20 positive indications of human skeletal elements, according to participating collectives.
- All evidence was embalmed, secured and transferred to the Mexico City attorney general’s office (FGJCDMX) for forensic analysis and possible identification.
- Members of Hasta Encontrarles CDMX, Mariposas Buscando Corazones and Una Luz en el Camino worked with specialized Fiscalía personnel, security elements and dogs, with 75 people covering roughly 3,504 square meters.
- The expanded sweep followed a Dec. 5 find by Una Luz en el Camino, which prompted a return to nearby terrain to check for additional remains.
- Search groups say operations will continue in other points of the Topilejo forest corridor, a recurrent focus where earlier recoveries were reported this year.
