Garibay added that migrant groups are increasing in numbers is because they have discovered immigration system loopholes governing large groups with unaccompanied minors.
Earlier this month Mexican police discovered a secret tunnel used to traffic drugs and migrants underneath the border to the U.S.
Footage shows federal police officers scaling down into the 33ft tunnel in Nogales, which is a city divided by the US-Mexico border.
The Mexican side of Nogales is positioned in the north-western state of Sonora, and its northern side is in Arizona.
