Recent tragic events in the Mexican city of Maravatio have highlighted the escalating violence ahead of the upcoming national elections on June 2. The killings of two mayoral candidates within hours of each other have raised concerns about the potential for increased violence during the election season.
The first victim, a gynecologist named Miguel Ángel Zavala, was found shot to death in his car on Monday. The second victim, Armando Pérez, a mayoral candidate for the conservative National Action Party, was also discovered dead in his car just before midnight on the same day.
