Mexico Strikes Blow Against Caballeros Templarios Gang in Michoacan: "Mexico's Federal Police have reported successes in their struggle against the emerging Caballeros Templarios drug gang, including the arrest of a key financial operative.
On Saturday, the Public Security Ministry (SSP) reported the arrest of Cristina Guadalupe Iniestra Medina, alias “La Cris.” She was captured in the city of Zitacuaro, in the group's home state of Michoacan.
According to the authorities, Iniestra was responsible for managing a portion of the group's funds, reporting directly to German Ivan Rivera Aguilar, who received orders from gang head Servando Gomez Martinez, alias 'La Tuta.'"

I monitor and analyze international press on Mexico, with a focus on security, immigration, human rights and social movements for peace and justice, from a feminist perspective. And sometimes I simply muse.
