Norte (Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua) 6/24/08



In an unprecedented statement of protest on the border, proprietors of junk yards, repair shops, used car lots, body and muffler shops, and in all, more than 300 business owners in Cd. Juárez agreed yesterday not to open shop to the public until Thursday at the earliest. They will be closed for three days because of insecurity, kidnappings and assaults. After the meeting, one of the businessmen stated, “Why open so they can assault and kidnap us? We prefer to closing rather than continuing to be victims.â€
