Transporters blocked seven of the main roads that connect the State of Mexico with the capital of the country on Wednesday, some protesting the case of an alleged rape of minors in the municipality of Zimapán, in Hidalgo.
The blockade on the Mexico-Pachuca highway began around 5:00 in the morning by cargo trucks, which has caused intense traffic and left thousands of people stranded.
According to various banners placed on the trucks, the transporters point to William “N” as a rapist of girls in the municipality of Zimapán, in Hidalgo, and demand that he be imprisoned for these acts.
