Those displaced by increasing violence in Mexico d ela in the war against drug trafficking

03/26/1911
At least 230,000 people have been displaced
in Mexico by drug-related violence, and

half of them had taken refuge in the U.S., according to data

cited by a report that was released this week.

Center Internal Displacement Monitoring, based in Geneva, based its report this week in studies by local researchers, and said the Mexican government does not compile figures on people who have had to leave their homes by power struggles among drug gangs.
"Independent studies put the figure at about 230.0002, in accordance with the section on Mexico in the global report. " About half of the displaced across the border into the United States, leaving a figure of some 115,000 internally displaced persons, most likely in the states of Chihuahua, Durango, Coahuila and Veracruz.
Although that number is well below the 3.6 to 5.2 million displaced decades of drug violence and the struggle of the guerrillas in Colombia, the report suggested that people who had to flee because of war of drugs in Mexico has received little support.
"In Mexico, state and federal authorities do not recognize and begin to respond to internal displacement caused by cartels" , said the group.

The Secretariat of Government (Interior Ministry) in Mexico has issued no immediate comment on the report.

However, census figures released this month by the Mexican government, are signs of an exodus, at least in some areas.

The census, conducted mid-2010, mentioned as deserted 61% of the 3,616 homes in Praxedis G. Guerrero, a border town in the Rio Grande Valley, east of Ciudad Juárez. In that area they have fought battles between the Juarez and Sinaloa cartels, and people in the village said that armed groups forced the inhabitants to leave.
A staggering figure, 111,103 of the 488,785 homes in Ciudad Juárez, were abandoned.
The number equivalent to 23%. Almost a third of the 160,171 homes in Reynosa was unoccupied.

The figure for all of Mexico is 14%, and many of those houses, especially in southern states, belong to migrants who left America in search of employment.
Part of the exodus, according to the agency, due to the indiscriminate nature of drug violence that has left over 35,000 dead since President Felipe Calderon launched an offensive against cartels, in late 2006.
