Severed heads found on abandoned Mexico taxi bonnet

More often than not the violence between 2 gangs is taken out on the people linked with that particular group, or random people of the society.

The severed heads of five people have been found on top of the bonnet of a taxi in Veracruz, Mexico, local media reports say.

The vehicle had been abandoned on the side of a road.

The torsos of the victims were found in black plastic bags inside the car and in its boot, sources quoted by the Mexican magazine Proceso said.

The taxi had graffiti on its bonnet, linking it to the Jalisco New Generation drug cartel.

The powerful drug cartel is locked in a turf war in the area with another cartel, Los Zetas, according to a prosecution source who spoke on condition of anonymity.

The cartels are fighting for control of the region’s lucrative fuel theft business, the source said.
