CNDH Accuses Mexican Army of Human Rights Violations

The National Human Rights Commission (CNDH) of Mexico issued a statement this Friday accusing the Mexican Army of committing "serious human rights violations." These accusations arise in the context of the death of six migrants from Egypt, El Salvador, and Peru in Chiapas, a state located on the border with Central America, which occurred last October.

According to the CNDH, the autonomous body conducted a thorough investigation of the events and concluded that the Mexican military had committed violations of the fundamental rights of the migrants involved in the incident. This incident has generated profound concern in Mexican society and the international community, which demands a prompt and fair resolution of the case.

In an official statement, the CNDH declared: "Based on the evidence collected and analyzed, it was determined that the armed forces carried out actions that resulted in the death of six innocent migrants, flagrantly violating their human rights." These statements call into question the actions of military authorities and generate a debate about the respect for the rights of migrants in Mexico.

In response to these accusations, the Mexican Army has expressed its willingness to cooperate with the competent authorities to clarify the facts and ensure that justice is served in this case. Meanwhile, society and human rights defense organizations have demanded an impartial and transparent investigation that sheds light on what happened and allows for the identification of those responsible for these violations. Justice and respect for the human rights of migrants are fundamental aspects that must be protected and guaranteed at all times.
