Jannette Chao concert tour suspended after robbery in TJ


Singer-songwriter Jannette Chao had to cancel her concert tour of Mexico after having $40,000 of her equipment stolen in Tijuana. She stated that she was ordered by the police to remain silent and not report the violence in Tijuana to the media. Here's the irony in all this, according to her:

"I feel outraged and sad, the idea of this project was to show another face of Mexico other than violence, I wanted to document this country as bright and beautiful with noble and loving people ... I feel deceived..."

Here is the article in Spanish:
