It marks the country's deadliest trimester on record, amid heightened violence from regional gangs and multinational cartels.
According to the Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System, 2,855 people were murdered in January, 2,802 in February and 2,836 in March.

The country suffered 5,441 assassinations for the same period in 2011, the year former president Felipe Calderón announced the fightback against Mexico's criminal organizations.
In the first three months of 2018 - former president Enrique Peña Nieto's last term in office - the figure was 6,599.
A record 33,369 people were assassinated in the whole of 2018, the most since the country started keeping official numbers in 1997.
During 2019, Mexico has suffered an average of 93 assassinations every day.
In February, the Mexican Senate approved President Andrés Manuel López Obrador's proposal to create the country's first National Guard, a unit consisting of police officer and military personnel to counter the rising violence.
Guanajuato, Mexico's most deadliest state, registered 947 homicides in the first quarter of 2019.
The data also brought to light the murders of 244 women so far in 2019, up from 199 during the same period last year.
