To this end, members of the Beta Groups and Child Protection Officers (OPI) of the INM, in coordination with elements of the Secretariat of Citizen Security (SSC) of Mexico City, provided support – without incident and in full adherence to the human rights – to foreigners to keep their belongings and board the buses that will take them to the State of Mexico, Hidalgo, and Morelos.
