This Wednesday, eight more bags containing human remains were found in the grave in the Las Agujas neighborhood, in the municipality of Zapopan. This brings the total to 54 since work began on the second site last Sunday, June 29, and 223 bags, including the 169 bags found on adjacent land since last February.

Maribel, a member of the Guerreros Buscadores collective of Jalisco, indicated that so far, less than a quarter of the land has been worked on, despite the work being carried out with heavy machinery.

"There hasn't been much progress. In other words, we were talking about not even a quarter of the land being worked on. Today, eight bags were found."

I think progress has been made. Well, the truth is, we only made a few meters to where we had left off yesterday, to the limit of where work was done yesterday, and I think this will take a long time, for several months, because it does indicate and hint at more pockets.”

He added that one reason why little progress was made today is because one of the two excavation machines broke down, so he hopes it will be working again by tomorrow, Thursday.

Sources close to the investigation indicate that 38 victims have been classified so far, 18 of whom have already been pre-identified through tattoos; none have been released to their families.

On Tuesday, personnel from the National Search Commission joined the search due to a lack of personnel from the State Search Commission and the high demand for work.

Members of the Luz de Esperanza collective and Lupita Aguilar, founder of the Familias Unidas por Nuestros Desaparecidos collective, also joined the search.

The Guerreros Buscadores collective of Jalisco reported that this Monday they found four bags containing human remains in the second grave in the Las Agujas neighborhood of Zapopan, where they began work last Sunday, June 29.

Thus, 37 bags containing human remains have been located at this second clandestine burial site, located next to the fenced property where the State Attorney General's Office and forensic experts found 169 bags containing human remains.

Indira Navarro, founder of the collective, noted that this brings the total to 206 bags on the same property, which is only divided by the wall, but which are part of the same investigation folder.

"Look, today's work continues with the prospecting process at the Las Agujas pit. Four more bags were extracted today, bringing the total to 37 on the property, which is the same folder as the 169 bags, which unfortunately now totals 206."

She added that due to the large area, personnel from the National Search Commission will integrate the search for human remains on the property, which is located near the University Center for Biological and Agricultural Sciences.

She also indicated that advanced technology is needed to conduct more precise searches.

"The National Bureau of Investigation (CNB) will also be coming tomorrow to provide support, given the circumstances and the magnitude of the grave. The work being done recently has been done with heavy machinery and excavation work using rods, but we do need slightly more advanced technology to make this more accurate."

Finally, he indicated that the land measures 220 hectares, so the search efforts will last several days.

Nearly 30 bags containing human remains have now been found in the second grave discovered since last Sunday by the Guerreros Buscadores de Jalisco collective in Las Agujas, Zapopan, next to the fenced property where the State Attorney General's Office and forensic experts found 169 bags containing human remains.

Marichuy, a member of the collective, stated that personnel from the Attorney General's Office and forensic sciences are working with heavy machinery to remove the skeletal remains.

“Look, the land survey is already very extensive, but we're prospecting by meters, because we're inspecting the land by perimeter. What we want to rule out is that there aren't more, but unfortunately, they're coming out.”

He noted that the searches are being carried out with heavy machinery in quadrants 5 meters long by two meters deep.

“The bags are coming out at a depth of one meter 20 to two meters deep.” He added that in the coming days they will continue searching the entire area until they rule out the presence of more human remains.

He recalled that on Thursday another group from the same collective located a clandestine crematorium inside an abandoned unfinished construction site in the town of Santa Cruz del Valle in Tlajomulco. Teeth and other charred human remains were found at the site.
