NEW YORK, Jan. 13 — Rudolph Giuliani, the former mayor whose ‘zero tolerance’ crime policy helped tame New York City streets, was to visit Mexico City on Tuesday as part of a highly paid bid to export that success.
“HE WILL be in Mexico tomorrow,” spokeswoman Sunny Mindel said on Monday night. “As you know, he is a consultant to the Mexico City Police Department. He is going to take a look at things.” Mindel refused to release details of his itinerary, citing security concerns.
Giuliani received $4.3 million from Mexican businessmen to help bring order to Mexico’s capital of 20 million, where murder, kidnappings and armed assaults are common and police corruption is a given. More than 80 percent of crimes in go unreported, analysts have estimated.
The former mayor, who became world famous for his steady leadership after the Sept. 11 attacks that toppled New York’s World Trade Center towers, now runs a security consulting firm.
A scheduled November visit to Mexico City was postponed.
