Google TranslateAt least 400 armed Mexican Federal agents staged a demonstration at their Juarez headquarters Saturday morning demanding the resignation of three top commanders.
The demonstration took place at the Hotel La Playa on Avenida Lopez Mateos as federal agents closed off several streets and demanded the resignation of three top commanders saying they abused their authority.
Inspector Alarcon Salomon Olvera, AKA "The Shaman", Joel Ortega and Ricardo Duque barricaded themselves in rooms 105, 106 and 107 respectively as demonstrators ransacked rooms and removed drug and weapons they say were used against innocents.
The demonstrators demanded the release of Mexican Federal police commander Jose D'Cid who it is said was framed by one of the top commander in Juarez for federal crimes.
Mexican Federal agents have undergone numerous attacks in the past week which wounded at least five and killed one, and they have been under threat by organized crime which threatened to escalate attacks against Federal police if certain officers were not forced to resign.
The July 16th car bomb in Juarez which killed four is thought to be the opening attack in this campaign.
Numerous graffiti warnings painted in various locations in Juarez have repeatedly warned about ongoing attacks as a response to abusive federal police commanders.
