Mexico police discover at least 45 bags filled with human remains
2 Jun 2023
At least 45 bags with human remains have been found in a ravine in the western Mexican state of Jalisco during a search for seven young people reported missing last week.
The gruesome discovery was made at the bottom of a 40-metre (120-foot) ravine in the municipality of Zapopan, a suburb of Guadalajara, a large industrial hub in Jalisco state.
“Forty-five bags with human remains have been extracted that belong to both male and female people,” the state prosecutor’s office said in a statement on Thursday.
Authorities found the remains during a search for two women and five men, all aged about 30, who had been reported missing in the area since May 20.
The missing person’s reports for each of the seven had been made separately on different days, but investigators found that they all worked at the same call centre, which was in the same area as where the human remains were discovered.

Forty-five bags containing human remains with characteristics matching seven missing call center staff has been discovered in a ravine in a suburb of Guadalajara, according to the state prosecutor’s office in Jalisco.
The Jalisco State Prosecutor’s Office investigating the deaths said it has preliminary information that the body parts “match the physical characteristics of some of the young people missing employees of the call center.”
Seven call center employees were reported missing between May 20 and 22 in the metropolitan area of Guadalajara, in western Mexico.
Luis Joaquín Méndez Ruíz, a Jalisco prosecutor, said they found the human remains inside bags thrown on a lot with a very steep slope.
Forensic experts have yet to determine the number of victims and their identities.
The Jalisco Institute of Forensic Sciences is working with the families of those missing to determine the identification of the human remains.
