The state should not be bloodthirsty with Z-40: Fernández de Cevallos.
"The important thing, first of all, is that law and justice need to be applied. Of course, I believe that even though it is said that he was a bloodthirsty man, the state, the government, the authority should not be bloodthirsty with him. It needs to be legal and fair."
"Secondly, he cannot and should not be left unpunished, so much pain, so many deaths and so many crimes that have occurred in this country; hopefully, once and for all, we find the paths to understand each other, between Mexicans”.
