Social organizations in Mexico turned in thousands of signatures on petitions to demand that Germany suspend bilateral police training and arms agreements with Mexico. Activists said the Mexican government was incapable of tackling the country's chronic corruption and violence and that any arms sent to Mexico would end up in the hands of organized crime. They also called on the UN Committee on Enforced Disappearances to appoint a commissioner to provide follow-up to its recommendations on Mexico. Clayton Conn reports from Mexico Citry. teleSUR
