On Wednesday, police, military and a missing persons group began digging at the site which has at least 36 different ‘graves’. Each of the grave sites can contain multiple people. So far, at least four craniums and other body parts have been recovered.

State Attorney General Jorge Winckler said they learned of the secret burial site following the arrest of a suspect with ties to a criminal organization.

As of last year the 342 graves of Veracruz are distributed in 102 sites throughout 44 municipalities . The State, which has 212 municipalities, has an area similar to that of Ireland or Panama. The municipality of Veracruz, the largest city in the state, registers 173 graves. The towns of Agua Dulce, Pueblo Viejo (Misantla), Tres Valles and Alvarado have 16 pits each.

”It shows what we already know,” says Lucía Diaz, founder of a missing people’s group, Solecito, told AP.  ”That Veracruz is strewn with corpses that is the reality of the state and of Mexico.”
