Okay, does anyone know what's going on? The man from Cozumel who loves to bare the (bad) news posted a link on Trip Advisor yesterday about threats made to people in the city government of Isla Mujeres by the Zeta cartel, and how the Navy has been mobilized and more patrols are out. Here's an article from Por Esto translated. And what does it mean in the article when it says a cartel cell seized the square in Cancun and Playa del Carmen?
ISLA WOMEN, August 5. - A great fear and concern is what the general feel of Isla Mujeres, then that would be known that the city was threatened by the criminal group "Los Zetas," a situation that be certain it should have promptly informed the whole community, for this to become their own security guard, and could well point out any irregularities to the authorities that they will get to see, which would result in benefit to all.
Anonymously reported both as business people is alarming given that this type of situation, threatening the security of Isla Mujeres, tourist destination for its geographical position has not been breached by organized crime, which as stated, busaca how to get into this place, which fortunately has not occurred, so that people can still roam late at night with peace of mind that is not going to pass anything.
They explained that crime in Isla Mujeres at present operates in isolation to economic activities, and that very little people who commit crimes, so it would be very serious and risky for this destination a cell of this organization was introduced to seize the square, something that already happened in Cancun and Playa del Carmen, where almost daily disclosed executions or arrests of people involved in drug crimes.
In this sense, the wider community of Isla Mujeres said officials of the municipality should promptly announce actions to be undertaken against organized crime, so we hide these things really benefits no one, since are the same people who would release the information of possible irregularities that may occur in the island, because fortunately all know each other, which allows some control over the people who are somehow alien to this place , which facilitates the detection time of the entry of strangers seeking to engage in illegal activities.
Commented that right now everyone identifies that somehow people are engaged in drug dealing or illegal activities in Isla Mujeres, which operate in isolation, so it does not have any connection with a criminal organization, allowing in some way have control over, and people coming from outside, and intends to introduce this destination to perform actions outside the law, as these are quickly identified so that their stay is brief on this site .
For their part, entrepreneurs invited local authorities to work together with the Secretary of Navy of Mexico, to permanently be blinde to all Isla Mujeres for the good of the whole community, which at this time is concerned and fearful for the possible arrival of a cell of organized crime, a situation that would make this destination materialize into a ghost town, which should not be allowed, so the actions taken to counter this cancer of society, should be made known to all the inhabitants themselves to take their own precautions.
There was a beheading on Isla Mujeres last year of a woman dealing drugs... I THINK it was stated at the time that the smoking gun pointed to the Zetas.
