5,000 Live Baby Caimans Seized in East Bolivia

LA PAZ – Bolivian police seized 5,000 live baby caimans in an operation against animal trafficking in the oriental province of Santa Cruz, which borders on Brazil and Paraguay, the provincial government said Saturday.

Dealers had shipped the baby caimans in trucks to the city of Santa Cruz from the village of San Matias on the Brazilian border, an area rich in wetlands and animal diversity.

Santa Cruz Environment Secretary Manilo Roca said that the baby caimans of the yacare species, a medium to small sized crocodilian, have now been cared for and fed and could be returned to their habitat.

Confiscated from the same trucks were 500 caiman skins of various sizes, with a total value of $18,000.

Roca said that if the owners of the shipment do not have authorization to engage in this kind of commerce, they will be tried for illegal trafficking of a species that can only be sold under a management plan with special permits.

Hooded Protesters Occupy Mexican University President’s Office

MEXICO CITY – A group of “people with their faces covered” occupied the office of the president of the National Autonomous University of Mexico, or UNAM, over the weekend to protest the expulsion of five students and make several other demands, officials of the Mexico City-based university said.

“People with their faces covered have once again attacked the UNAM,” the Office of Directors of Schools, Institutes and Centers said in a statement.

The building was occupied on Sunday, two days after students staged a protest march at the UNAM, Mexico’s largest university and one of Latin America’s leading higher education institutions, officials said.

The university provides adequate channels for students to seek a redress of grievances and lodge complaints, the UNAM said.

About 200 students from the School of Sciences and Humanities, one of the UNAM’s university preparatory schools, marched down one of Mexico City’s main avenues last Friday to Ciudad Universitaria, the institution’s main campus.

Some 15 hooded students burst into the building that houses the president’s office and occupied it to demand the reinstatement of five students from the School of Sciences and Humanities’ campus in Naucalpan, a Mexico City suburb, who were expelled for vandalism on Feb. 5. EFE

Hindustan Times said the incident came to light around 9pm after a man made a call to the police to inform them that a woman was lying unconscious in a lane near Udasin Ashram in Najafgarh.
She had reportedly made a written statement claiming she was gangraped, and rape had also been confirmed by a medical examination.
According to the woman, she had told police that she had married Inderjeet at a local temple. “Inderjeet’s relatives then called her to Bakkarwala so that they could complete the formalities of registry marriage”, said an officer to Times of India.
The men, police told Indian Express, gave the woman a drink laced with sedatives. When she fell unconscious, they took turns to rape her.
There is however some confusion on the status of her relationship with Inderjeet, reported Times of India.
“Earlier, the 26-year-old woman had lodged an FIR at the Mundka station, alleging that Inderjeet had raped her. Inderjeet had also lodged a complaint on February 28, alleging that the same woman was trying to falsely implicate him in crime against women cases. A police probe is on”, it said.

Police Find 6 Bodies Inside Vehicle in Northwest Mexico

CULIACAN, Mexico – The bodies of six men were found inside an SUV near the industrial zone in Ahome, a city in the northwestern Mexican state of Sinaloa, police said.

The grisly discovery was made Saturday by municipal police.

The vehicle was taken in an armed robbery on April 8 in the town of Juan Jose Rios, officials said.

Army troops cordoned off the area while crime scene investigators from the prosecutor’s office gathered evidence.

The SUV was towed to a funeral home with the bodies still inside so they could be examined by specialists, officials said.

Sinaloa Attorney General Marco Antonio Higuera Gomez went to the funeral home to oversee the investigation.

The victims were stripped to the waist and wore only pants and sandals, police said.

“It is believed that the victims are farmworkers who were reported missing on Friday night after drinking at an agricultural camp,” a police spokesman said.

The motive for the massacre is not known, but Sinaloa has been plagued by drug-related violence for years.

Sinaloa is home to the powerful drug cartel led by Joaquin “El Chapo” (Shorty) Guzman.

The Sinaloa cartel, sometimes referred to by officials as the Pacific cartel, is the oldest drug cartel in Mexico and Guzman, considered extremely violent, is one of the most-wanted criminals in Mexico and the United States, where the Drug Enforcement Administration has offered a reward of $5 million for him.

The rival Los Zetas cartel has been trying to grab control of some areas in the state from the Sinaloa organization.

The war on drugs launched by former President Felipe Calderon, who was in office from 2006 to 2012, left about 70,000 people dead, or an average of 32 per day, in Mexico, officials say.

Calderon, of the conservative National Action Party, or PAN, deployed thousands of soldiers and Federal Police officers across the country to fight drug cartels.
