Resumen

At the beginning of 2017, Amnesty International documented that, 10 years after the beginning of the ‘war on drugs and organized crime’ in Mexico, impunity for human rights violations and crimes under international law has persisted in the form of torture and other ill-treatment, forced disappearances, extrajudicial executions and arbitrary detentions (Amnesty International, 2017: 250). In general, the Mexico 2016-2017 report on human rights decries a patent increase in violence.
