Tamara was stabbed after visiting an ATM. She was muxe, and worked as a nurse at Santos Reyes Nopala hospital.

Tamara Zuñiga Azcona, a muxe nurse originally from San Blas Atempa, Oaxaca, was murdered last night near the sports complex in the municipality of Pochutla, on the Oaxacan coast.

According to the judicial authorities, Tamara had gone to withdraw money from an ATM located inside the Pochutla General Hospital and when she left she was allegedly assaulted and attacked with a knife, causing deep wounds; Despite being taken to the hospital for medical attention, she died.

Tamara knew Pochutla, since for many years she worked at the General Hospital of this municipality, however, she currently worked as a nurse at the Santos Reyes Nopala hospital, located two and a half hours from the place where her life was taken.

Friends condemned Tamara's death, saying she was an active and always cooperative woman who did not deserve to die this way.

In February 2025 a man and a woman were arrested for qualified homicide in connection with Tamara's murder.
