Google Translate.The Internal Affairs division of the Mexican federal police have removed 40 Mexican Federal agents from office Saturday and placed them under arrest, say Mexican news reports.
A team of the Secretaria de Seguridad Publica Federal apparently conducted searches of rooms where the Juarez detachment of the Mexican Federal police are quartered and found a number of contraband including disallowed weapons and drugs, as well as evidence of breach of administrative rules.
The surprise search was initiated because of the number of complaints received about the Federal Police in Juarez.
The Juarez detachment was rotated into Juarez in late August following a mutiny of several agents in the previous detachment. The previous detachment had been subjected to numerous repeated attacks by organized crime over the span of several weeks prior to the mutiny, and was suddenly evacuated by air, and subsequently replaced by the current detachment.
The current detachment is quartered at the Hotel Colonia in the Pronaf district.
