"We want water, not provocateurs": protesters stop march in Jalisco in the presence of a shock groupCitizens and collectives in Jalisco gathered for a second major demonstration demanding clean water and justice for alleged aggressions and arbitrary detentions during a previous protest on October 11. Protesters displayed bottles of contaminated water to highlight the poor quality of the supply and called for improved water quality, reduced pollution, and prevention of privatization. The demonstration was initially canceled due to the presence of masked individuals wielding sticks, stones, and hammers, whom organizers claimed were sent by the state government to suppress the protest. Despite this, the group eventually proceeded toward the Government Palace after calling for 'clean water, not provocators.' The National Commission for Human Rights had previously urged authorities to respect freedom of expression and avoid unnecessary force.
