translated from Spanish: They will sanction police who showed off their weapon during protests against AMLO

The State Public Safety Commission of Morelos reported that it will sanction one of its elements that came with a gun to an event of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, and that he showed that weapon in the midst of peasant protests against the representative.
“With regard to the note circulating on social networks where you see an element of civilians carrying a firearm, a few meters from the kiosk of Anenecuilco, in the municipality of Ayala, during the visit of the President of the Republic Andrés Manuel López Obrador, the CES recognizes that this element belongs to this Corporation,” the Commission said, in a statement.
“The CES has instructed the Directorate of Internal Affairs to take the statement of the element and proceed with the appropriate sanction, since IT was ordered that the ESC personnel who would participate in the civilian security operation do so unarmed,” he added.
A video shows how the element shows the weapon in the middle of shoving and pulling, during a protest by members of the National Union of Agricultural Workers (UNTA).

It’s not clear who the peasants were confronting. Some of the nudges are with people with white T-shirts.
In another video, the peasants are observed before, near President López Obrador, claiming that Emiliano Zapata’s painting by the artist Fabián Cháirez be removed from Fine Arts.
Also, according to the newspaper Reforma, the peasants reminded the president of his opposition to the Thermoelectric in Huexca and demanded the clarification of the death of one of his companions, Samir Flores.
“It is a cynism to come to the cradle of General Zapata keeping the exhibition of the paint crap that they are exhibiting in Fine Arts, it is an offense for all the peasantry of Morelos,” said Emiliano Zapata’s grandson, Jorge, according to Reforma.
“It has already been told hard and good that we will not allow that thermos to work, a death project in Zapata’s crib is not feasible, and such as that they threw a shovel of dirt on his Samir’s file,” he added.
