ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ OS Conversations: Living alongside Mexico's drug gangs
Residents in Mexico on coping with crime, kidnappings and murders.
When she was sworn in as Mexicoβs new president, Claudia Sheinbaum pledged to tackle the countryβs drug gangs. In the past couple of months, local civilian groups have reported hundreds of deaths and disappearances due to them. Hosts Mark Lowen and Krupa Padhy hear from those who just want to go about their lives and jobs in safety, but are being caught in the crossfire and sometimes even targeted. Rosa is a 15-year-old student and would like to leave it all behind but feels for now she must coexist with constant fear. We also hear from two women in Mexicoβs Sinaloa state, whose loved ones are among βthe disappearedβ. And two journalists share the dangers and threats that go with reporting on organised crime.
