In front of Casa Aguayo, the hundreds of students shouted slogans and requested a dialogue with the governor of the entity, Miguel Barbosa, whom they demand to present an effective security strategy for the citizens and specifically for the university community.
Upon their arrival at the Government Palace, the students said they would not move from the site until they were attended to by the governor.
After a few minutes, an entourage of students was greeted at Casa Aguayo to engage with government officials, while the rest of the protesters waited outside the compound awaiting the response.
