Protests are continuing in Mexico in the aftermath of violent clashes between police and demonstrators during Saturday’s inauguration of President Enrique Peña Nieto. Dozens of people were arrested and treated for injuries when opponents of Nieto faced a heavy police crackdown. Activists have accused Mexican police of using infiltrators to carry out vandalism and other acts of sabotage. In Mexico City, hundreds of people marched through the streets to call for the release of jailed protesters and to denounce alleged police infiltration.

Palomo Escoto: “All this vandalism was caused by groups of infiltrators. It was horrible, because we have been protesting peacefully. You have seen that those of us in Yo Soy 132 have been peaceful as we reject the return of the PRI. We are completely rejecting the return of Enrique Peña Nieto, and we don’t think it should be like this. Many innocents should be released.”
