In 11 years, at least 3, 760 bodies have been exhumed from 1, 306 clandestine graves discovered in Mexico, reported the National Commission of Human Rights (CNDH). 

To this figure is added the finding of what is shaping up as the second largest clandestine cemetery in Veracruz, where, according to the latest update by Governor Miguel Ángel Yunes, the remains of 174 people have been recovered. 

According to the last hemerographic sampling carried out by the CNDH, between January 1, 2017 and August 30 of this year, at least 163 graves with 530 bodies have been found, of which 476 have yet to be identified; with this, the number of located remains reached 165,431.

The agency noted that a sampling from January 1, 2007 to September 2016, warned a total of  1,143 burials of this type in national territory, from which the exhumation of 3, 230 corpses or skeletal remains follows. 


“The CNDH is concerned that in many regions of the country the findings of clandestine graves and, consequently, the number of corpses and / or human remains of them exhumed,” he said in a statement. 

The entity with the highest number of clandestine cemeteries between 2017 and 2018 was Veracruz, with 37; while Jalisco heads the list of states with more bodies exhumed, with 126.

The results of this exercise, the commission confirmed, confirm that the existence of clandestine graves is a consequence, among other aspects, of the lack of prompt and expeditious justice that “far from producing effective and sustainable investigations … in the majority of the cases leave the aggrieved and their families in a state of abandonment “. 

The CNDH maintained that these findings challenge and question the capabilities and resources of the Mexican State to respond to a situation that has become an obstacle to build a culture based on the observance of human rights and respect for the dignity of people. 

The Count:

After the State Prosecutor’s Office (FGE) reported Thursday that after 30 days of proceedings, recovered the remains of 166 people in 32 clandestine graves located in an area of ​​300 meters in the center of Veracruz, this Friday were exhumed others eight skulls. 

“The latest information I have is 174 skulls exhumed,” Governor Yunes confirmed in the evening, in an interview with Alma Paola Wong for MILENIO Television. 

The state leader said that since yesterday afternoon it began to show relatives and groups of missing the credentials and clothing found in the place, and that the process will continue in the coming days.

On the doubts that these groups have expressed by the secrecy with which they carried out these works, he assured that there is no controversy, because the prosecution acted according to the law. 

Although the public prosecutor Jorge Winckler reserved the location of this cemetery, some versions indicated that it is located in the town of Arbolillo, in Alvarado, where the prosecutor’s office extracted 50 skulls in March of 2017. 

Red and black bags with personal items, open pits bounded with stakes and yellow plastic strips, as well as vehicles with logos of the FGE, are daily scenes for four weeks for seafood traders, restaurateurs and fishermen who live near that land located in front of the municipal pantheon.

Federal Highway 180, known as Costera del Golfo, separates this property, which has recovered 200 garments, 144 identifications and personal items of adult men and women and even minors, Alvarado cemetery.

Rosalía Castro Toss, of the Solecito Veracruz Collective, regretted that they have not called a third party who will certify the authorities’ statements and deeds and confirmed that next week they will review the photographs of clothing and articles found in that grave. 

Castro Toss said that the fact that they have found 170 more skulls in an area where they had already worked in  half a year ago speaks of a poor job of recovering human remains.

With the graves of Colinas de Santa Fe, in the port of Veracruz, and those of Arbolillo, in Alvarado, areas that are less than 50 minutes away, the figure of exhumed skulls amounts to 520; and not 20 of them have been identified and handed over to their families.
