Mexico City - The Mexican government officially stated that drug trafficking networks penetrated political parties and company sectors of the country.

The Interior Secretary Francisco Ramirez Acuna assured Saturday in an encounter with national businesspeople that drug trafficking and organized crime "have entered the political parties and some company groups".

Nobody is out of reach from drug trafficking and crime, reason why no sector can remain passive before the flagellum of crime, the person in charge of Mexican domestic policy added.

After indicating that before the emergency security and intelligence areas were reinforced in the offices of that organism, Ramirez Acuna assured organized crime has been forcefully hit.

The declarations of Ramirez Acuna were given after a denunciation of business organizations charged with money laundering, product of drug trafficking, illegally carried out in Mexico by smuggling thousands of tons of products and equipment.
