The Mexico-Cuernavaca highway had a lot of traffic this Sunday

Although at first it was thought that it was the work of some motorcyclists who were seen in the area, it was all due to a demonstration of several peasants who are heading to CDMX to speak with the president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO).

According to portals like Processthe peasants in question began their demonstration in Cuernavaca, last Saturday, May 6, and They seek AMLO to give them an answer for the payment of compensation for their landswhich were used for the construction of the Siglo XXI Highway.

The peasants indicate that since the last administration the Federal Government has not paid them what corresponds to them for said highway that goes from Veracruz to Acapulco and that occupied part of their lands in the municipality of Puente de Ixtla for years.

So the protesters want to meet with AMLO to have an answer. Something that at the entrance caused a traffic mark “you will cry” in the direction of CDMX, where for hours it has been reported that traffic is around the wheel at various points.

Assaults were reported on the Mexico-Cuernavaca highway on May 8

At the height of Tres Marías and Tlalpan, the circulation is too slow and as it was to be imagined, several assailants took this opportunity to rob those who were caught in traffic. At least that’s what the newspaper Reforma reported.
