Chilpancingo, Mexico.– Given the growing violence that exists in Acapulco, the office manager of the Public Security Secretariat of this port, Luis Enrique Vázquez Rodríguez, resigned from his position this Wednesday, June 12.
In a press conference he offered in the council room of the city council, Luis Enrique Vázquez indicated that his irrevocable resignation runs as of this Sunday, June 15.
“It is due (his resignation) to the invitation I have received to participate in the area of security and justice of the next federal government,” said the person in charge of the Security office, who assumed this position on January 20, 2023.
Luis Enrique Vázquez assumed the Secretary of Security to replace Adrián Olivas Franco.
In the government of the Morenista mayor of Acapulco, Abelina López Rodríguez, two secretaries and an office manager from the Secretariat have served in that role.
Adrián Olivas assumed ownership of the SSP, replacing the Navy Lieutenant Commander, Maximiliano Serrano Pérez, on July 22, 2022.
On June 28, 2023, Maximiliano Serrano was arrested in the state of Sinaloa by federal and state security forces for his alleged participation in the disappearance of the sailors, Victoriano Rodríguez Zurita and Óscar Manuel González Andrade, who were part of his escort when He served as head of the SSP in Acapulco.
At the beginning of Abelina López’s administration, in September 2021, the head of the SSP was Gerardo Rosas Aznar, but he resigned on October 2, and Maximiliano Serrano took over.
The resignation of Luis Enrique Vázquez as head of the SSP occurs when a series of acts of violence have occurred in Acapulco that have not stopped since weeks before the elections on June 2.
On Sunday night, June 2, an explosion occurred in the Acapulco main square that left 9 people injured.
The State Attorney General’s Office (FGE) reported that this event was caused by “a flash” of gasoline, but unofficial sources assure that armed individuals threw a Molotov cocktail at one of the planters in the zócalo to cause terror among the citizens.
