B-King and Regio Clown: Who were the Colombian musicians found dead after going missing in Mexico?
"On Monday, prosecutors in Mexico City and the State of Mexico confirmed the discovery of the bodies of Colombian urban musicians Bayron Sanchezknown by his stage name B-Kingand DJ Jorge Luis Herrera Lemos, known as Regio Clown. The artists were last seen on September 16 and had been missing since then. Sanchez's relatives identified him on Monday during a proceeding at the deputy attorney general's office in Tlalnepantla, in the State of Mexico."
"Over the weekend, the Colombian leader had issued an alert about the disappearance of the emerging artists in Mexico. From the beginning, Petro has insisted that the case has ties to drug trafficking. However, Mexican authorities have not detailed the motive for the deaths of the two musicians, who had just performed one of their first international concerts a couple of days before going missing."
"They killed our youths in the United States of Mexico. An international mafia strengthened by stupid military and prohibitionist policies, called the war on drugs,' which they are forcing on humanity and on Latin America. More young people killed by an anti-drug policy that is not an anti-drug trafficking policy, he wrote in his post."

Prosecutors in Mexico City and the State of Mexico confirmed discovery of their bodies, and Sanchez's relatives identified him at the deputy attorney general's office in Tlalnepantla. The artists had performed one of their first international concerts days before going missing. Colombian President Gustavo Petro publicly lamented the deaths and attributed them to an international mafia strengthened by military and prohibitionist war-on-drugs policies. Mexican authorities have not detailed a motive, and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said search efforts were underway.
