Sept. 23 (UPI) -- Mexican authorities said Tuesday they had found the bodies of a pair of Colombian musicans days after the country's president pleaded for their return, blaming drug cartels and the United States for their disappearance.
Prosecutors in Mexico City announced they had found the remains of Bayron Sanchez, known as B-King, and DJ Jorge Luis Herrera Lemos, known as Regio Clown, after they had been missing for a week, reported El Pais.
Officials have not offered any explanation for the deaths of the musicians who had just played one of their first international concerts. But Colombia President Gustavo Petro suggested in a post to X Sunday that "multinational mafias" had a role in their disappearance.
Petro also wrote that the mafias are growing in South America because of the "rampant drug consumption in the US," which he called a "decadent society" lacking in love.
