Activists in Mexico splashed the presidential palace with red paint and gathered outside to chant 'not one murder more.' The protest follows outrage over a young woman's murder and the publication of graphic photos of her mutilated corpse in newspapers.
“It’s not just Ingrid. There are thousands of femicides,” said Lilia Florencio Guerrero, whose daughter was violently killed in 2017. “It fills us with anger and rage.”
Others graffitied slogans including “they are killing us” on the building’s walls and ejected bright flames from cans of flammable spray-paint. “I’m not burying my head in the sand... The government I represent will always take care of ensuring the safety of women,” he said, without detailing new plans.
La Prensa, a newspaper that ran the gruesome image on its cover, defended its record of reporting on crime and murder, subjects it said the government prefers to keep quiet. The paper also said it was open to discussion on adjusting its standards beyond legal requirements.
