**Inspections at Bars Verify Permits, Not Security Issues: Arnulfo Guerrero**
In recent operations targeting various city bars, municipal authorities have emphasized the importance of verifying permits rather than focusing on security concerns. According to Arnulfo Guerrero León, Secretary of Municipal Government, no bar faced permanent closure during these inspections, which have reached 25 establishments thus far. These inspections, especially in the city’s Eastern Zone, are set to occur regularly.
The inspections are part of an inter-agency effort involving multiple government levels. Despite the scope, only five locations were covered in a recent operation due to the thorough nature of the inspections. A case highlighting these actions involved the bar “La Cueva del Peludo,” which faced penalties as workers lacked proper health cards. In a press briefing, it was revealed that two minors were found in two bars, one working, the other as a customer. Following recent attacks in areas such as 6th Street in Zone Centro, the local government, accompanied by security forces, intensified its visits.
Former municipal administrations noted that violence in these areas is often linked to territorial drug control among rival groups. However, Guerrero reiterated that current municipal operations are strictly for permit verifications. He asserted a zero-tolerance policy against any venue employing minors, stating that such establishments will be closed immediately. Guerrero also mentioned that the city utilizes 100 inspectors to check approximately 583 bars every weekend, accompanied by police for safety.
As the inspections continue, the municipal government hasn’t yet confirmed how many businesses have reopened following recent sanctions.
