The collective "Sabuesas Guerreras" is pressing for swift forensic analysis after the grim discovery of three bodies washed ashore in Navolato, Sinaloa. The victims, found wrapped in blankets and bound with fishing nets, were floating in the sea in the Castillo zone.

Activists from the search group made the initial sighting of the decomposing bodies along the coast of Altata Bay. They promptly notified the State Attorney General's Office, leading to the area's security and the subsequent recovery of the remains by Friday night. The bodies were then sent to the Forensic Medical Service for identification.

"Sabuesas Guerreras" expressed their desire for the scientific identification process to bring peace to the families affected by violence. They are appealing to anyone with a missing family member who might be in the fishing area of Castillo, Navolato, to contact judicial authorities. The organization offers accompaniment to those seeking to identify the discovered bodies.

The collective reaffirmed its commitment to continuing the search for loved ones and supporting grieving families. They hope the Attorney General's Office will soon complete the necessary genetic work to reveal the identities of the deceased.

We hope that, with dignity, the scientific identification of the three bodies in decomposition will return peace to the homes of those who have been victims of violence.
