Mexico City, Mar 8 (efe-epa).- Clashes between police and activists in Mexico City on Women’s Day have left 81 injured, the Secretariat of Citizen Security (SSC) said Monday.
Of those, 62 were police officers and 19 were civilians, with nine police officers and one civilian transferred to hospital, the SCC’s undersecretary of institutional development, Marcela Figueroa, said at a remote press conference.
The agency will also probe the possible use of tear gas and participation of men that had infiltrated the demonstration.
However, Figueroa, on behalf of the SSC, categorically denied the use of tear gas or another type of irritant substance against protesters, saying there is video evidence the gas “could have come from these groups.”
