Madras HC Condemns TASMAC's Corruption Handling: Justice Pugalendhi's Stern Remarks
Mexican Cartel Behind Influencer Valeria's Death? Her Last Words 'They Will Kill Me' Go Viral Valeria Marquez, 23, was tragically shot dead during a TikTok livestream at her beauty salon. Just minutes before the attack, she whispered fears that someone might kill her, mentioning strangers coming to 'take her away.' The chilling livestream ended abruptly when a disguised gunman, posing as a delivery person, handed her a toy and coffee before opening fire. Shot in the head and chest, Valeria collapsed while her phone remained live. Prosecutors say this was a targeted assassination, not a robbery. The attack matches the violent methods used by the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, notorious for quick motorcycle hits. Although TikTok removed her account, the haunting footage continues to spread across social media. Times Of India

Mystery of influencer shot dead on livestream deepens
Glamorous young influencer Valeria Márquez's life was taken while she was going live on a TikTok live stream, leaving followers horrified. Questions surrounding her tragic death continue to linger Valeria Márquez was just 23 years old - a rising influencer with a love for makeup, fashion and travelling. She updated her followers through livestreams, letting them into her world. On this day, she was smiling on live, excited for a courier to bring her a gift. She'd joked about it. Speculated. But beneath the laughs, it was clear: something felt off. Still, no one could've imagined what would happen next. It was then that Valeria was gunned down in cold blood - live on camera. Valeria was known for her glamorous lifestyle, having carved out a name for herself on social media. Still only in her early twenties, she already owned her own salon while chasing bigger dreams through a ring light. She was right on the cusp of something greater. She often shared photos on Instagram aboard private jets and yachts. At the time of her death, she had more than 223,000 followers on Instagram and another 100,000 on TikTok. But just like that, her dreams were stolen from her. Everything changed on May 13, 2025. She was livestreaming from her beauty salon in Zapopan, a town in the central-eastern state of Jalisco. She was waiting for a gift to arrive, but she'd already mentioned feeling uneasy. Her friend couldn't see the courier's face when he showed up. It was believed to be concealed. She voiced her fear: 'Why didn't he just drop it off? Maybe they were going to kill me. Were they going to come and take me away, or what?' She was holding another gift - a pink stuffed animal when the delivery driver asked for her by name. It left a lingering doubt in her head. However, hours before, a man had posed as a delivery driver, claiming to have a 'very expensive' gift for her. Valeria looked away from the camera. Then she grabbed her chest and stomach before collapsing. A gunman had burst into her salon and shot her dead - all while the livestream continued. Another woman took her phone and ended the stream. The chilling footage was screen recorded and has since circulated online, showing Valeria laughing and chatting before a bullet silenced everything. Her life ended on screen, leaving her followers — and the world in shock. Mexican authorities later confirmed Valeria had no links to criminal activity, sparking deeper questions about the motive and whether she was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. But while many questions linger, some things have become clearer. The shooter didn't know her personally - he had to confirm who she was before pulling the trigger. Denis Rodríguez, a spokesperson for the JSPO, said, 'It appears he didn't know her. With that, you can deduce - without jumping to conclusions - that this was a person who was paid… obviously someone who came with a purpose.' The salon's location adds even more weight to the theory. Despite the private security and clean appearance, it's in one of the most violent areas of Jalisco, a state heavily affected by cartel activity. In fact, just 50km away, a cartel training centre was found in March. And in Jalisco alone, more than 15,000 people have disappeared since 2018. The same day Valeria was killed, former congressman Luis Armando Córdoba Díaz was murdered just two kilometres away, according to the newspaper Reforma. Authorities are investigating whether the two deaths are connected. Some media outlets have shared messages suggesting Valeria previously blamed her ex and feared for her safety. But Juan José Frangie, the mayor, claimed there were no official reports from her about threats. 'A femicide is the worst thing,' he added. While the speculation continues, there are questions that still need answers. Why was she targeted? Who could do such a thing? Valeria Márquez died with her smile still on screen, gunned down in her own salon, in the middle of doing what she loved - chasing a future that was so close to being hers. She should've gone viral for anything else but not for her murder.

What is femicide? Mexican TikToker Valeria Marquez's murder sparks theories
Valeria Marquez, a 23-year-old Mexican beauty influencer and TikTok star, was fatally shot on Tuesday night in Zapopan, Mexico. Sitting inside her beauty salon, she smiled into the camera as she livestreamed to her fans. The Mexican beauty was opening a delivery, a stuffed animal, as the livestream continued, an armed man entered the salon and opened fire. Valeria was shot and collapsed on camera. At first, some of her viewers thought it might be a prank. But it wasn't. The livestream kept rolling until a not-so-familiar face finally picked up the phone and ended it. The shooting happened inside Valeria's salon, Blossom The Beauty Lounge, located in the Santa María shopping plaza in the Real del Carmen neighbourhood. Authorities quickly responded, and the Jalisco State Prosecutor's Office launched an investigation. Her death is being treated as a suspected femicide, a specific kind of gender-based killing that's all too common in Mexico. ALSO READ| Valeria Marquez death: Who is Ricardo Ruiz Velazco, man linked to Mexican influencer's shooting? Femicide is not only the killing of a woman. It happens when a woman is found and killed simply because of her gender. Misogyny, control, and violence are usually the strong motivators behind such acts. Amnesty International cited that one in four female killings in Mexico in 2020 were probed as femicides. The psychology behind femicide details how men who commit such crimes may feel entitled to control women's lives, or punish them for asserting independence, rejecting advances, or, as in Valeria's case, simply being seen and successful in public. As a TikTok and beauty entrepreneur, Valeria had amassed over 149,000 on Instagram and more than 114,000 on TikTok. Just before her death, she posted a mirror selfie to her Instagram Stories alongside photos and modelling shots. ALSO READ| Valeria Marquez death: Can you guess the murdered TikTok star's net worth? Notably, Valeria's murder came just days after a female mayoral candidate in Veracruz was also killed during a live stream in another femicide probe.

Mexican beauty influencer shot dead during live stream
A 23-year-old Mexican beauty influencer was shot and killed during a TikTok live-stream broadcast, the prosecutor's office for the state of Jalisco said Tuesday. The incident is being investigated as a possible femicide, or a gender-based killing targeting a woman, authorities said. The victim, identified by Mexican authorities as Valeria Márquez in statements to multiple media outlets, had more than 84,000 followers on Instagram and more than 89,000 on her TikTok account, which appears to have been taken down. Live-streamed footage shows a woman sitting in a beauty salon chair, holding a pink plush-toy pig when a man, heard off-camera, greets her and asks if she is Valeria. She then appears to be shot in the head and torso. The woman in the footage matches Márquez's description, according to videos and images reviewed by The Washington Post.
