The national kidnapping rate per 100,000 women is 0.10; however, Tlaxcala reported a rate of 0.13 from January to May of this year, ranking it seventh among the states with the highest rates in the country; in April, it ranked sixth, according to the Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System (SESNSP).
This is according to the Violence Against Women Report: Crime Incidence and 911 Emergency Calls from the Secretariat of Security and Citizen Protection (SSPC) of the Federal Government, as of May 31 of this year.
According to this source, a kidnapping of a woman was reported in Tlaxcala from January to May, placing it among the states that recorded such cases: Chihuahua, Tabasco, Sonora, Veracruz, Tamaulipas, Mexico City, Puebla, Morelos, Nuevo León, Jalisco, Michoacán, Chiapas, Guanajuato, and the State of Mexico.
In terms of number, Chihuahua leads the list with 18 cases; followed by Veracruz with eight; Mexico City with seven; Jalisco, Puebla, Sonora, and Tabasco each reported four; the State of Mexico, Nuevo León, and Tamaulipas had three; Chiapas, Guanajuato, and Michoacán each recorded two; and Morelos and Tlaxcala each documented one.
In this regard, state authorities headed by the elected member of the National Regeneration Movement (MORENA), Lorena Cuéllar Cisneros, have not reported anything. However, the State Attorney General’s Office (FGJE), headed by Ernestina Carro Roldán, informed the SESNSP of five cases of kidnapping from January to May, all of them “extortionate,” without differentiating the sex of the victim.
