Angy was stabbed in her home. Her killer was arrested with the help of Angy's relatives.

Citizen groups are demanding justice for Angelique Villarreal, a trans woman who was murdered in her home this Friday night in the Fernando San Pedro neighborhood.

In a statement, “civil organizations, Tamaulipas Trans Vihda Diversity, We Will Have Wings, Collectives, Clubs and social activists condemn the transfeminicide of comrade Angelique Villarreal.”

"We demand that the authorities and the Attorney General's Office of the State of Tamaulipas carry out the corresponding investigations that will clarify the case, find those responsible and do justice for Angelic Villarreal," they emphasized.

“We strongly condemn with deep pain and anger the cowardly murder of our trans colleague. They are killing us! There have been more than 6 violent murders of trans people so far in the administration of the current government of the State of Tamaulipas,” they said.

Ana Karen López Quintana, president of Tamaulipas Diversidad Vihda Trans AC, wrote on social networks “we demand justice for our colleague Angy Villarreal, no more deaths, no more violence, no more murders in our community.”

It has been learnt that the person allegedly responsible for depriving Angy of her life was arrested with the help of the victim's relatives, who was handed over to the authorities.

The events occurred during the night on Avenida Las Torres between calles C and D in the Fernando San Pedro neighborhood. According to preliminary reports, she was found dead inside her home.
