Have you noticed?
If you’re very observant of your surroundings, you’ll have noticed two things—or more—regarding the Security Council and, especially, the authorities in charge of Public Safety and Investigations: they haven’t mentioned anything about organized crime and the cartels that dominate the state.
Every Monday, these authorities come out with a pre-prepared script announcing arrests, seizures, confiscations, raids, etc., but they almost never refer to the crime map or the territories in the state where these groups hold sway, much less to strategies or efforts to dismantle them.
The issue is discussed superficially, or it’s presumed that many people were arrested with doses or illicit substances, but there hasn’t been a general seizure or dismantling of the main groups involved. On the contrary, they are protected in municipal areas like Bacalar, Chetumal, and Felipe Carrillo Puerto.
In Quintana Roo, both the Attorney General’s Office and the State Police have intelligence and investigation units, as well as technological tools to investigate airspace, networks, and telecommunications. In recent years, millions of dollars have been invested in this area, and yet, even with all this, crime remains unchecked? Another thing that, if you’re observant, you’ve probably noticed is that in Chetumal, Bacalar, and Felipe Carrillo Puerto, when they seize illicit substances, conduct raids, or engage in confrontations with criminal groups, there are usually NO ARRESTS. Either the suspects escaped, or no one was present. Strange, isn’t it? It’s only in the northern part of the state where arrests are supposedly made, curiously, but in the central and southern regions, it’s different.
Just like what happened in Bacalar this week, they seized two luxury SUVs with illicit substances and other weapons, but NO ONE WAS ARRESTED. Or, as happened in Felipe Carrillo Puerto, there was a shootout and a raid where they found an arsenal, but no one was taken into custody. As I always say, you have the final say on these curiosities.
