The Santa Rosa de Lima Cartel and Jalisco New Generation Cartel dispute over the area; this dispute has resulted in, from January to August more than 671 people have been executed in 6 townships
The refinery “Antonio M. Amor” in Salamanca, Guanajuato, is stuck in the crossfire.
2 criminal entities fight over control of the company, as well as the 5 poly ducts that supply gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and gas to the regions of Jalisco, Aguascalientes, Michoacan, and Queretaro-San Luis Potosi.
From January to August 660 were executed in Salamanca and the 5 towns that the ducts pass through. In the entire state of Guanajuato, from January to August of this year, 1,671 homicides have been reported, 244 of them just last month.
In fact, in the last year, in Salamanca, a dozen police commanders and operational staff of the refinery have been executed, amongst them an ex-military that was Chief of Physical Security for Pemex, 2 superintendents, 2 flow controllers, and an engineer last Thursday.
Working in that area is the Santa Rosa de Lima Cartel (linked to the Gulf Cartel) and Jalisco New Generation Cartel.
A source from Military Region 12 with headquarters in Irapuato revealed that the superintendents of the refinery are extorted and threatened for the control in the flow of hydrocarbons.
In a meeting with federal and state authorities, personnel from Pemex urged them for security for the personnel that works at the refinery and the security agents in charge of watching over the ducts, whose names have in fact been placed on the so-called “narcomantas”.
Guanajuato is the most violent entity, homicide is up 140%
Why is it important?
Guanajuato is the 6th entity that contributes to the PIB(gross domestic product), the increase of violence in the area will directly affect the economic growth of the country.
The general view: At this rate, on a nationwide scale the year 2018 will break 2017´s record, the most violent year in modern Mexico. In the first 8 months, there was a 17% increase in homicides reported.
The numbers do all the talking: The first 8 months of 2017 697 homicides were reported in Guanajuato, for the period of time but in 2018 there is notice of 1,671 homicides a 140% increase.
What is the deal? The conflict for control of the area(the triangle of Guanajuato) between the Santa Rosa Lima Cartel and the Jalisco New Generation Cartel is the cause of the increase in violence. A zone that has several Pemex ducts which are pillaged.
Guanajuato is an entity with a high level of manufacture, especially automobile, located there are GM, Mazda, and Honda. The increase in violence could have repercussions for foreign investments.
What they are saying: For every 100,000 inhabitants, in Guanajuato 58.7registered annualized rate, according to Valle-Jones, the 7th highest number in the country. Little by little the zone is being transformed into a cluster of homicides.
