MEXICO CITY (Reuters) -Mexico president Claudia Sheinbaum said on Wednesday she had sent a diplomatic note to Washington over the death of a national in a U.S. hospital a day earlier, which she said was presumably the result of his detention.
“We sent a diplomatic note on this case asking all the investigations be carried out,” she said, adding her government was pushing for sanctions should abuse be found.
She said had also sent another diplomatic note over the death of Silverio Villegas, a man from Michoacan state, who was fatally shot by an immigration enforcement agent in a Chicago suburb earlier this month.
