Overview
- Saúl Monreal shared a studio performance with the Zacatecas band The BadMen in which a bassist wore a red T‑shirt bearing a swastika.
- The video drew online condemnation and press attention that framed the visible Nazi symbol as a possible incitement to hatred.
- Hours after the outcry, Monreal posted a follow-up video saying he does not endorse or promote symbols tied to hate, discrimination or violence.
- The session was recorded at Noise Terror Studio, and the band, a Fresnillo rock and blues trio, had not issued a public response as of the latest reports.
- The incident carries political weight because Monreal has voiced interest in the Zacatecas governorship despite Morena rules barring relatives of the sitting governor, who is his brother.
