Print Reporting from Mexico City — Eleven people arrested in recent anti-government demonstrations and sent to maximum-security prisons have been released without charges after their detention created an international uproar
A 12th person arrested separately in connection with the same case was also freed
and publicly denounced what he described as beatings and threats by state security services
Mostly peaceful marches against the government of President Enrique Pena Nieto have become a mainstay since the Sept
26 kidnapping and likely massacre of 43 college students in Iguala in the state of Guerrero
The students were attacked by local police working with a drug cartel in cahoots with the mayor of Iguala and his wife
The case exposed deep levels of official corruption that have galvanized the public into expressions of outrage and demands for justice and changes in the government
scene of one of the largest demonstrations
a handful of protesters have clashed with police
when masked demonstrators hurled objects at heavily armed riot police
eight men and three women were sent to maximum-security prisons in Veracruz and Nayarit
detainees have been routinely freed after a few days in local jails
Parents of some of the detainees were joined by Amnesty International and numerous local and overseas groups
as well as the rectors of major Mexican universities
Amnesty International said the charges that the detainees would have probably faced -- including attempted murder and incitement to riot -- were “disproportionate.”
“The evidence against the 11 demonstrators is so weak that it is difficult to understand why they are still in prison -- especially in high-security installations
being treated as highly dangerous criminals,” Erika Guevara Rosas
director of the Americas section of Amnesty International
“Such treatment begs the question of whether there isn’t a deliberate effort to discourage legitimate protest.”
they were out from behind bars and heading home
in which they said police beat and psychologically tortured them
threatening to burn them alive -- an apparent allusion to how it is believed the 43 students were killed
Though most of the detained probably participated in the march
one was a filmmaker and several were people who happened by the scene

His captors took him to the headquarters of drug-cartel investigators
where one officer told him that “making a student disappear” was no big challenge
“The four hours of terror I lived were the worst in my life,” Bucio said
the office of the National Security Commissioner
saying the agents who detained him did not follow procedure and had been suspended pending investigation by an internal affairs unit of the federal police

The crime targeted by Anticorrupción in the Koldo case | EDATV NEWS This Is the Crime Anticorrupción Points to in the Koldo Case Over Jésica's ApartmentIt also focuses on the alleged cash delivery to Ábalos's former advisor
Koldo García06/03/2025 09:30:00h by Jose Andres Jorge Barceló
The Koldo case continues to reveal new information
The Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office directly points to the scheme for an alleged bribery offense
which is said to have been financed by people close to businessman Víctor de Aldama
the stay of Ábalos in a villa in La Alcaidesa (Cádiz) during a summer is being investigated
It also focuses on the alleged cash delivery to his former advisor
Koldo also in the spotlight of Anticorruption | Europa PressThe chief prosecutor
detailed these facts in a report sent to the Supreme Court as part of the 'Koldo case.' His writing responds to the appeal filed by Ábalos
who requested the removal of the precautionary measures that prevent him from leaving Spain
The same measures require him to appear in court every 15 days and involve the withdrawal of his passport
Anti-Corruption supports the stance of Judge Leopoldo Puente
who maintains that there is sufficient evidence to consider Ábalos's possible involvement in criminal acts
he mentions the use by his then-partner of a house funded by people close to Víctor de Aldama
The Koldo case enters a new phase | Europa Press
the Prosecutor's Office highlights other elements that strengthen the investigation
the lease with an option to buy a villa in Cádiz
previously acquired at De Aldama's request
It also mentions the delivery of large sums of cash
allegedly provided by the businessman to Koldo García
these facts constitute clear indications of bribery
This crime is based on the delivery of favors or benefits to a public official with the aim of obtaining privileged treatment
the Public Ministry supports the measures imposed by the judge
These seek to prevent the former minister from evading justice
tried to distance himself from Jésica's hiring
some of his statements support the young woman's version
despite having been employed for almost three years in two public companies linked to the Ministry of Transport
During his appearance before the Supreme Court judge as part of the 'Koldo case,' García explained:
and it was then that I realized she has no computer skills."
Joseba tried to dissociate himself from any connection to the alleged corruption scheme
He claimed that he never received cash payments as a commission
that he did not travel to the Dominican Republic to obtain money
He argued that his entry into a public company was solely because he sent his resume after learning of an available vacancy
According to what was published by La Razón
Joseba García stated that he had no involvement in Jésica's incorporation
All in the position of the public company dependent on the Ministry of Transport
he could count on "a resource." "When I found out about it
she was already working at Ineco," he declared
Judge Leopoldo Puente asked him if he knew the specific functions performed by Ábalos's partner
García replied that she worked from her home and that
the witness faces an indictment in the National Court within the same judicial process
explained that his work consisted of preparing "security reports," including those related to acts of sabotage in Barcelona
Regarding the activities carried out by Ábalos's partner
he indicated that he assumed she had worked since she was hired and made reports
faced with the possibility that she never performed any tasks
Joseba suggested that the company Ineco should provide explanations in this regard
The actor and director is to star in How I Spent My Summer Vacation
based on his own script about a career criminal who learns to survive in a Mexican prison with the help of a nine-year-old boy
The prisoners have been transported to at least four other jails
said the director of the Ignacio Allende prison
Around another 1,200 inmates remain at the facility in the Gulf coast city of Veracruz
though authorities have not ruled out transferring more detainees to Villa Aldama penitentiary 50km (31 miles) away
many of the inmates fought with police last week after learning of the move
who fear they will not be able to afford to travel the greater distances to see their loved ones and deliver care packages of food and essential items
The row has been brewing since Veracruz governor Fidel Herrera Beltran announced in December that Gibson would be filming at Ignacio Allende prison
The film-maker usually likes to direct his own screenplays
but on this occasion he is passing the reins to Adrian Grunberg
Grunberg served as first assistant director on Gibson's most recent movie
