The official homicide report for Friday, May 8, counted only 5 murders in Campeche. However, figures shared on social media by Miguel Ángel Sulub Caamal claim that the violence actually left 9 people dead in different municipalities of the state.
According to the published count, 4 homicides were registered in Calakmul, 2 in Escárcega, and 3 more in the state capital, which would raise the total to 9 victims in a single day.
The post questions the handling of the official figures, as it claims that they show the State Government allegedly downplayed the wave of violence that struck Campeche in recent hours.
