On the borders of Zacatecas and San Luis Potosí, the body of the transport leader and social activist José Ascensión Carrillo Vázquez was identified, with clear signs of torture and the coup de grâce, in response to which the clarification of the facts was requested. The Frente Popular de Lucha de Zacatecas (FPLZ), the Coordinadora Nacional Plan de Ayala (CNPA), the Organización de Derechos Humanos Red Solidaria Década Contra la Impunidad A.C. (RSDCIAC), and the Red Solidaria Década Contra la Impunidad A.C. (RSDCIAC), all called for a clarification of the facts. (RSDCIAC), and the Frente de Comunidades Afectadas por la Minería (Front of Communities Affected by Mining), demanded investigations into what they said was a forced disappearance, torture and extrajudicial execution. The organisations said that they had learned a week before that, José Ascensión Carrillo Vázquez, a social activist and leader of the CAVA Transporters' Union, who was a defender of the land and territory against the extractivism of the Peñasquito mining company, a subsidiary of Newmont, which has been devastating the water, the territory and the environment, was disappeared. His body was found with visible signs of torture and a shotgun blast, along with eight other people on the Vanegas-San Tiburcio highway in Mazapil, Zacatecas. They regretted the delay with which the National Human Rights Commission (CNDH) has acted in response to the petition made since 2020, requesting that precautionary measures be granted to social activist José Ascensión Carrillo Vázquez. In this sense, they requested that this case be taken up by the Attorney General's Office (FGR), protection for the family of the social activist, his team, the people and residents of Mazapil, who were fighting for their territory, and the protection of the people and residents of Mazapil, who were fighting for their territory.
