Mexico: Activists plan to march in Xochimilco, Mexico City, from 09:00 Sept. 5
Activists plan to march in Xochimilco, Mexico City, Mexico, from 09:00 on Sept. 5; heightened security and localized disruptions likely.
At least 300 activists plan to march in the Xochimilco borough of Mexico City from 09:00 on Sept. 5 to demand the government drop criminal charges against a local community leader. Participants will gather at Adolfo Mateos Lopez No. 323 before marching toward the South Preventive Detention Center (Reclusorio Preventivo Varonil Sur).
Although the action should remain largely peaceful, authorities will likely deploy an increased police presence near the demonstration as a precaution. Localized transport and business disruptions are likely along the march route.
Avoid the march as a precaution. Allow additional time to reach destinations if operating near the impacted area. Seek alternative routes to circumvent any related transport disruptions. Heed the instructions of security personnel.
