 Mexico says two US federal agents killed in crash were not authorized for operations inside country  Mexico’s government says two U.S. federal agents killed in a northern border-region crash were not authorized to take part in any operations on Mexican soil, raising new questions about their role in a cross-border drug lab mission. Authorities say the agents were returning from an operation targeting a clandestine drug facility in Chihuahua when their vehicle, traveling as part of a convoy, went off a ravine and exploded last weekend. Two Mexican officers also died in the incident. U.S. officials have confirmed the two Americans were CIA personnel, though their agency has declined to comment on the circumstances. Mexican officials say one of the agents entered the country as a visitor while the other used a diplomatic passport, and insist the government had no knowledge of foreign operatives conducting or planning any enforcement activity inside Mexico.

 ANAMBRA POLICE JOINS IN THE ADVOCACY AGAINST DOMESTIC SERVITUDE AND EARLY CHILD MARRIAGE


The Anambra State Police Command today 16th December 2025 at the Pastoral Centre beside Roban Stores, Awka joined stakeholders like the International Federation of Women Lawyers (FIDA), National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP), Anambra State Ministry of Women Affairs, Civil society organizations, community leaders, and concerned citizens in advocating against the harmful practices of domestic servitude and early child marriage.


These practices constitute grave violations of the rights of the child and are punishable under Nigerian law, including the Child Rights Act, Trafficking in Persons (Prohibition) Enforcement and Administration Act, and other relevant laws applicable in Anambra State. Under the law, no child should be deprived of education, dignity, safety, or the opportunity to grow in a healthy and supportive environment. The event was organized by the Africa Faith and Justice Network (AFJN) in collaboration with the Dominicans for Justice and Peace. 


Domestic servitude often subjects children to exploitation, abuse, neglect, and denial of basic rights, while early child marriage exposes minors especially girls to various health risks, psychological trauma, and lifelong social and economic disadvantages. These acts are not cultural norms, but crimes that must be confronted collectively.


The Anambra State Police Command reiterates its commitment to protecting children and vulnerable persons. The Command will therefore continue to investigate reported cases, rescue victims, and ensure that perpetrators are brought to justice in accordance with the law. The Command is also strengthening collaboration with the Ministry of Women Affairs, social welfare agencies, traditional institutions, schools, and non-governmental organizations to enhance prevention, protection and rehabilitation efforts.


To this end, the Command calls on parents, guardians, employers, and community leaders to play their roles responsibly. Children should be in school, not in servitude or forced into marriage. Communities are encouraged to speak up and report any suspected cases of child abuse, exploitation, or forced marriage to the nearest Police station or relevant authorities. All reports will be treated with confidentiality and professionalism.


The fight against domestic servitude and early child marriage requires collective action. The Police cannot do it alone. Together, we can safeguard the future of our children and build a society founded on justice, respect and human dignity.


The Anambra State Police Command remains committed to this cause and urges all citizens to join hands in saying NO to domestic servitude and NO to early child marriage.
