Mexico’s president to deliver security plan after newly elected mayor killed

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum is expected to present her strategy to confront the country’s security problems Tuesday, Oct. 8. The country’s first woman president — inaugurated less than a week ago — is reportedly going to present a plan that will highlight law and order amid the growing violence linked to drug cartels and organized crime.

Her plan comes amid an investigation into the murder of Alejandro Arcos, the mayor of the Mexican town of Chilpancingo, who was killed Sunday , Oct. 6, just six days after taking office.

Arcos is the latest politician to be murdered in the country, with 37 candidates assassinated leading up to Mexico’s most recent elections this past June.
