Mexican woman mayor killed hours after election of first female president
[GEO.TV] Just hours after when Mexico elected its first female president Claudia Sheinbaum, the woman mayor of Cotija in Michoacán state Yolanda Sánchez Figueroa, was rubbed out, as per the authorities.

Figueroa was walking back from a gym to her house with her bodyguard when people in white van shot them, said the state attorney general in a statement, reported CNN
...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for...
Both Sánchez Figueroa and her bodyguard later died in hospital, it stated, adding that an investigation has been initiated.

Hours after Sheinbaum won a landslide victory to become the first female president of Mexico, Figueroa’s death confirmation came.

Sheibaum’s victory marked an achievement in a country, which is known for its patriarchal culture and widespread femicide.

Notably, the recent elections were the bloodiest in Mexico’s history with extensive violence against politicians looming large during the election.

During the campaign time, dozens of political candidates as well as applicants were killed by criminal organizations in attempts to influence the vote.

Replacing the outgoing President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, Sheinbaum will begin her presidency starting from October 1.
