More than a week after the disappearance of five young people from Lagos de Moreno, sources close to the disappearance presume a possible link to the Jalisco New Generation cartel (CJNG), with the facts, which have shocked the country.
And it is that police officers close to the investigation that is in charge of the Attorney General of the State of Jalisco, to which Lagos de Moreno belongs, presume that the Immediate Reaction Elite Criminal Group (GEDRI), the armed wing of the CJNG would be behind the disappearance of the five young people, according to what was published by the site Process.
They link the CJNG with the disappeared young people
GEDRI is allegedly headed by Gonzalo Mendoza Gaytán “El Sapo”who is linked to the disappearance of Roberto Olmeda20 years old; Diego Lara, 20 years old; Uriel Galvan, 19 years old; James Adolfo Martinez, 21 years old; and Dante Cedillo Hernandez22 years old.
The police sources who requested anonymity indicated that one of the disappeared apparently consumed glass and had ties to the CJNG, highlights the Proceso publication.
“It is possible that he told them about a well-paid job in a call center or a shell company and that he would see someone near the Lagos de Moreno Fair“, indicates one of the policemen who leaked the information.
In the case of the 5 young people murdered in Lagos de Moreno in Jalisco, only a twisted mind would force 1 of them to stone their 4 companions to death and give them a knife to cut off their heads.

“The criminals did not expect him to be accompanied and there they decided that they would take everyone to kill them (…) In the autopsy he would have to show that he was using drugs”highlight one of the informants.
So far, the authorities have not reported whether the bodies found on a farm in Lagos de Moreno belong to the five disappeared youths. Nor has it ruled on the veracity of the images.
According to police reports, the five youths attended the Lagos de Moreno Fair, and would later return home, but that never happened.
