MEXICO CITY (AP) Prosecutors in the northern Mexico border state of Sonora said Monday that a criminal gang killed a Yaqui rights leader because they wanted money his Indigenous group had raised at highway blockades.
Tomás Rojo Valencia disappeared May 27 amid tensions over months of periodic blockades that the Yaqui put up to protest gas ducts, water pipelines and railway lines that have been run across their territory without consulting them or giving them much benefit.
Sonora state prosecutor Claudia Contreras said Rojo Valencia had been trying to install a toll booth on a main highway that runs through Yaqui territory to raise money for his Indigenous community.
