Human Rights Watch also criticized the candidates who are running for president this year, saying that the theme of human rights “has been totally absent” from their campaigns.
The two major human rights problems Mexico has failed to resolve, according to the report, are alleged abuses by law enforcement authorities – such as torturing suspects to obtain criminal confessions – the alleged massacre of students by government forces in 1968 and 1971, and the killing and forced disappearance of reputed guerrillas during the country's “dirty war” era, from the 1960s to the 1980s.
