There is a strong outcry over the case of Jessica and Néstor, who were allegedly murdered and attacked by members of the National Guard in El Aguajito, in the municipality of Sinaloa. Jessica, her family says, was pregnant. It's a regrettable situation. The story with Ernesto Torres. 

Onward with the report. Very good morning. How are you? José. Good morning. Good morning. Auditor of Luz Noticias. As you already mentioned, Jessica, this 25-year-old woman was a psychologist by profession and practiced her profession, according to her family. She was 4 months pregnant and was murdered along with her 48-year-old partner, Néstor, a merchant dedicated to selling roasted chickens. 

Both lost their lives after being shot by members of the National Guard, allegedly in a confusion. This was in the municipality of Sinaloa. The unfortunate violent incident occurred in the afternoon. On Sunday, June 1st, on a dirt road near the town of El Aguajito, practically on the outskirts of the community. 

This, as I already mentioned, belongs to the municipality of Sinaloa. According to information gathered, the couple was originally from the community of El Alamito. At the time of the incident, they were heading to visit family in El Aguajito. While traveling on a dirt road, a country road, they were intercepted by members of a National Guard convoy who allegedly opened fire on the couple. 

Presumably due to a misunderstanding, at least this is the only explanation the relatives have found so far, since, according to them, neither of them was involved in illegal activities. The alleged misunderstanding that led to the death of this couple has caused, as you already mentioned, indignation and helplessness, especially among the relatives and the neighbors of these communities, who claim that Jessica and Nestor were civilians with no connection to illicit activities. Jessica was in a situation, because her pregnancy just happened over the weekend. Even though she was excited about her pregnancy, it's said that just the day before, on Saturday, she had shared with her family that she was pregnant, and yet, they would be parents, him and his parents, him and his partner. And unfortunately, this situation happened. Residents of Aguaquito claim that there are witnesses who saw the attack, because apparently the truck was driving when members of the National Guard had pulled them out of the vehicle and had both couples kneeling. Residents even tried to approach to intervene and tell the members of the National Guard that this couple was from another nearby community and that they had family in this same community, that they were acquaintances, and that they were good people. 

However, apparently, the same elements began to ask them to retreat. They say, according to one of the witnesses who mentioned that he saw that he could see that they had them kneeling and that even the couple was scared. He narrated precisely that at that moment Nestor asked him to go to the community to warn everyone so that they would come precisely to try to intervene since apparently they were threatening them. Let's listen to a little of what one of the witnesses said. José, they were chasing me, they were chasing me. So I came back to the ranch again to warn that they had him there in Cados with his hands on his head. When I returned back I heard some people throwing Gunshots and they chased me back. When I was about to arrive, they shot at me and they chased me back. Well, I had to go back, and I went back with an aunt and they told him the same thing. "Kick him back, knock him back, knock him stop." I saw that he was alive, dude. I saw that he was alive and he had him kneeling next to the truck, next to the passenger seat. He had him kneeling and he was yelling at me to tell him. Well, I saw him kneeling. And well, a pickup truck was seized from the scene, which was left with multiple bullet wounds. No authority, not even the National Guard, at the moment, no police force has released any information about it. It's worth mentioning that, well, at least yesterday, this happened on Sunday. However, yesterday, June 2nd, that is, in the morning, in the report issued by the State Attorney General's Office on the criminal acts. Registered the day before or in the last 24 hours, there was no information about what they have secured at this point. Nor was the murder or death of these two people, that is, Jessica and Nestor, eh, disclosed, presumably as victims of the crime of intentional homicide, but neither was it mentioned in any way. And I would like to tell you that later this happened, well, on Sunday, no? However, the family, well, yesterday, eh, around noon was when they were expressing their discontent, their helplessness, and above all, their demand for justice. And in this regard, José, during the afternoon, already after noon in the early afternoon, dozens of people came to demonstrate at the National Guard barracks in the city of Wasabe to demand justice for Jessica's death. There were dozens of family members, friends, and neighbors from two communities in particular. They were asking for an explanation of what had happened. However, they were ignored. They carried signs, mainly those they brought or looked at, demanding an explanation for the death of these people who, as I mentioned, were residents of the community of Aguajito, belonging to the municipality of Sinaloa. There were approximately 35 people, all of them residents not only of Aguajito but also of Alamito, two small communities in the mountains of Sinaloa. They carried the messages, which could be seen reading, "We want no more answers, no more injustice, Mr. Governor." They even asked that the governor intervene, so that he could clarify this situation. They mentioned that they only pursue their professions and wanted to be heard. These protesters accused the National Guard members, supposedly assigned to this Wasabe base, of having fired directly at civilians, apparently due to confusion while they were traveling on this road on their way to Aguajito to visit their family. As I mentioned earlier, they claim that they were not involved in any illegal activity. Jessica was this 25-year-old woman, a psychologist by profession, while Nestor, a 48-year-old man, was a businessman who owned a chicken shop and that right there in the chicken shop, he also sold roast chickens. And well, this practically happened last Sunday afternoon, more than 48 hours ago, and at the moment, no authority had They have spoken out about it yesterday, while they were demonstrating outside the National Guard base, they were asking for help. The members even asked them to withdraw, not to resort to violence. However, they never did, it was never violent, they were the only ones. They shouted slogans, they shouted "situations" but they didn't attack the National Guard members either, and there were moments of tension in which the members practically threatened to arrest the protesters if they didn't leave the area. According to what they told us, they remained stationed outside the National Guard base for about three hours, almost four hours, waiting to be seen, for some authority, a high command, to receive them, to explain what happened or why they shot, and above all because there are witnesses, as we already heard, who witnessed them being below. That is to say, it's not a situation that was circulating and that they could have been confused. That's what they mention. However, it's not clear because no authority has given more details about it, José. I would also like to tell you that unofficially it has been announced that Apparently, they even had a gun. However, as I mentioned, there hasn't been an authority to speak out regarding this situation. José, very well. Well, we'll be on the lookout for any statements from the federal authorities. It's a very similar case to what happened with two girls in Badirahuato on Mexico 24 who were accompanied by their family in a van where soldiers, apparently mistaken for criminals, opened fire and, unfortunately, two girls were killed, injuring four more members of their family. That was also a very high-profile case, that of Lady and Alexa Alexia, and, unfortunately, it's apparently happening again now in the municipality of Sinaloa in Aguajito, and they are demanding justice. Let's see what the authorities say because the case of the Birahuato girls was handed over to the federal government, and we haven't heard anything more. Ernesto: Indeed, and that's what 

They fear that a similar situation might happen, and that was what they were claiming and discussing yesterday, or what they were shouting in the slogans, "No more injustices, no more attacks on innocent civilians." This was what they shouted among the slogans, precisely to create an illusion or allude to forgiveness for the cases that have already been reported, where, apparently, innocent people have lost their lives. They point out that this couple, Jessica and Nestor, were not involved in anything illegal, that they were merchants in the community, and this is precisely what has caused outrage, and they are demanding an explanation from the authorities. Yesterday there were 35 people, however, they said or threatened to continue demanding, especially once they can carry out the funeral for this couple, who must be mentioned. Yesterday, some relatives were present, but most were focused on the topic of this couple's funeral. Very well,

thank you for this report. Good morning, José.
