A Mexican migrant shelter is raising concern over police intimidation after accusations of an unauthorised attempt by Mexico’s National Guard to enter the facility.
MEXICO CITY - A Mexican migrant shelter is raising concern over what it said was an unauthorized attempt by Mexico’s National Guard to enter the facility and question migrants.
Ramos said that a man wearing a National Guard armband demanded to enter the shelter and asked questions about its operations and the people inside. Shelter staff told the man that the premises were private and that he would need a government order to be able to enter, according to the Northern Zone Network statement.
As part of an agreement with the United States to use tougher measures to stop illegal migration, Mexico last week said it sent between 14,000 and 15,000 National Guard and military members to the northern border.
