Community groups discovered at least seven sets of human remains in the rural area of the village of “Los Angeles”; authorities are analyzing evidence to identify the remains.

Members of the collective “Amor por los Desaparecidos en Tamaulipas” (Love for the Disappeared in Tamaulipas) made a new discovery of clandestine graves and “kitchens” in a rural area south of the town of “Los Ángeles,” in coordination with the State Commission for the Search for Disappeared Persons.

The collective’s representative, Edith González, reported that this operation marks the 55th search and the 22nd successful discovery carried out by the group within the state.

During the operation, six clandestine “kitchens,” six graves, and seven complete sets of skeletal remains—still clad in clothing—were located, along with various other evidentiary clues that are currently being processed by the relevant authorities.

Search and recovery operations remain active in the area, as family members and volunteers continue to uncover objects and evidence that could contribute to future investigations and the identification of victims.

The victims’ relatives continue to traverse hard-to-reach areas in the hope of obtaining information regarding the whereabouts of their loved ones.
