Salomón Jara delivers 60 genetic profiles in the search for missing persons
Governor Salomón Jara Cruz has provided 60 genetic profiles to 32 families as part of efforts to locate missing persons in Mexico.
In a significant step forward in the search for missing persons, Governor Salomón Jara Cruz of Oaxaca delivered 60 genetic profiles to 32 families, marking the first integration of these profiles into the national genetic database. This initiative aims to enhance the search and identification process of individuals who have disappeared in Mexico, a country facing a severe crisis regarding disappearances. During the event at the Government Palace, Governor Jara emphasized the commitment of his administration to addressing one of the most urgent and painful challenges the country faces today.
The delivery of genetic profiles is the result of ongoing efforts that began in August 2023 with the First Brigade of Interviews and Genetic Sample Collection in the state of Oaxaca. This first phase emphasized a rigorous technical process and adherence to quality standards, underscoring the serious approach taken by the state government in addressing this grave issue. Governor Jara, alongside State Attorney Bernardo Rodríguez Alamilla, conveyed a message of compassion and responsibility, highlighting the humanistic approach of his administration in confronting sensitive issues that affect countless families across Mexico.
As the search for missing persons continues, the implications of this initiative extend beyond immediate identification efforts; it demonstrates a broader commitment by the government to support affected families and restore trust in public institutions. By integrating genetic data into national databases, the state aims to enhance collaboration and efficiency in identification processes, which can ultimately lead to closure for families enduring the pain of loss and uncertainty.
