Cuernavaca (Mexico) (AFP) - Several gunmen burst into the home of a newly elected Mexican mayor and shot her dead on Saturday, just hours into her tenure, police said.

Gisela Mota, 33, a left-of-center former member of Congress, was gunned down barely 24 hours after taking her oath of office in the city of Temixco, which is about 90 kilometers (55 miles) from the capital Mexico City.

Temixco is plagued by organized crime and rampant drug trafficking -- problems the slain mayor had vowed to help clean up.

The government of central Morelos state said that two of the suspected gunmen had been killed and one was in custody.

State Governor Graco Ramirez pledged there would be "no impunity."

Morelos has been one of the Mexican states most affected by drug violence plaguing the country, including kidnappings and murders.

More than 100,000 people have been killed or gone missing in a nearly a decade of drug violence nationwide.

Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto, who took office in December 2012, has pledged to reduce the murders, kidnappings and extortion haunting Mexicans.

That's like normal for this to happen:


Mexican woman campaigning to be mayor found decapitated

Guerrero mayoral candidate Aidé Nava González, whose husband was murdered and son abducted by criminal gangs, has been found decapitated - less than a fortnight after beginning her campaign

12 Mar 2015


 A Mexican woman running to be mayor of a town in the state of Guerrero has been found dead, less than a fortnight after launching her campaign.

The body of Aidé Nava González, 42, was discovered at 10pm on Tuesday on the outskirts of Ahuacuotzingo - the town she was hoping to represent. She had been decapitated, and a "narcomanta" - drug gang message, written on a sheet - was draped over her body.

"This is what will happen to all the ------- politicians who don't want to sign up, ------- turncoats. Yours sincerely, Puro Rojo ZNS."

Los Rojos is one of the drugs cartels which is currently fighting its rivals for control of the state of Guerrero - a valuable stretch of land encompassing the port of Acapulco, and trafficking routes from the coast inland to Mexico City and the north.

Guerrero is currently one of the most dangerous states in Mexico, with 42.7 murders per 100,000 inhabitants. The average rate among the 36 OECD countries is ten times lower than that of Guerrero, at 4.1 per 100,000 people.

 The town of Ahuacuotzingo is less than 100 miles, as the crow flies, from Iguala - the town where 43 students were abducted and presumed murdered in September, sparking a wave of protests.

Ms Nava had only announced her candidacy for the PRD - the opposition party to President Enrique Pena Nieto - on February 28.

Her son Francisco Quiñónez Nava was kidnapped in October 2012, and a 300,000 peso ransom (£13,000) demanded. He is still missing.

Her husband, Francisco Quiñónez Ramírez, had been mayor of the town from 2009 until 2012, and was planning on making a return in 2015. But he was shot dead in June 2014, when he was driving with his wife near the town.

She was seized by a group of armed men on Monday afternoon.

Guerrero is one of eight Mexican states due to hold local elections in June.

But Celestino Cesáreo Guzmán, the leader of the PRD in Guerrero, said that her murder would not prevent the elections being held.

"The PRD deeply regrets the event, and we offer our condolences to the family and - as we have already stated - we demand justice.

"It's not the first time that this has happened during the elections."


 Mr Cesáreo listed the names of other assassinated political figures; Margarito Genchi, candidate for Costa Chica who was murdered in 2012; Arturo Hernández Cardona, an activist and PRD supporter killed in 2013; Justino Carbajal, a trade union leader murdered in Iguala in the same year.

In December Father Gregorio Lopez Gorostieta, a priest from Guerrero, was kidnapped and murdered – the fourth priest to die in Mexico in 2014.

"The PRD is not going to ask for more security for our candidates; what we do ask is that the state and federal governments provide security for all, and guarantee the campaigning activities of all candidates of all parties," he said.

"But this act, without any doubt, darkens the electoral process."

How Mexico’s Fearless Female Mayor Sacrificed Herself to Save Her Daughter’s Life as She Was Abducted by Drug Gang, Tortured and Executed

November 26, 2012



The woman mayor who was kidnapped and murdered by a Mexican drug gang pleaded with her attackers for her young daughter’s life, it emerged today.

Maria Santos Gorrostieta, who had already survived two assassination attempts, was driving the child to school at around 8.30am when she was ambushed by a car in the city of Morelia.

The 36-year-old was hauled from her vehicle and physically assaulted as horrified witnesses watched, according to newspaper El Universal.
They described how she begged for her child to be left alone and then appeared to get into her abductors’ car willingly.


The little girl was left wailing as her mother was driven away on Monday November 12.

For the next week, her frantic family waited by the phone for a ransom call that never came.

Gorrostieta’s body – stabbed, burned, battered and bound at wrist and ankle – would finally be found eight days on dumped by a roadside in San Juan Tararameo, Cuitzeo Township.

She left behind her daughter and two sons as well as her second husband Nereo Delgado Patinoran.

Hailed as a heroine of the 21st century, her death has prompted much soul-searching in a country ravaged by violence.

The decision to withdraw her security team in November last year – and her police escort in January – has come under particular scrutiny.
Gorrostieta was elected as mayor of Tiquicheo, a rural district in Michoacan, west of Mexico City, in 2008.

Poor woman- that is tragic and despicable. She wanted to make some positive changes for the regular people and the evil people profiting from crime and corruption murdered her. The police and other government officials were probably in on it. Why else wouldn't she have some protection??

Mexico has very strict gun control laws.

And she was shot.  That means somebody had a gun!  That was against the law to have a gun!

See what happens if people have guns?

We need to take all the guns away.

What is and has been going on in Mexico is just insane, I've got relatives and friends who used to make regular visits to family south of the border who refuse to go now as it is just too dangerous, kidnappings, beheadings and dismemberment happen on the regular. What gets me is how popular narco cultura has become here, bands that do narcocorridos sell out when they play and you'll have men and women in the audience singing along about shooting rivals with AK's and chopping their heads-off while they dance and smile.

Mexican drug lords can't stand a female calling the shots. Nor any one else. They rule Mexico from their rat dens.
