Organizations ask CNDH to attract the case of baby Tadeo

Civil society organizations filed a formal complaint with the National Human Rights Commission (CNDH) so that it can attract the case of baby Tadeo, who was found in the garbage of the San Miguel prison in Puebla.
They claimed it is an interstate issue involving the state of Puebla and Mexico City.
The organizations indicated that the “justice done” by the governor of Puebla, Miguel Barbosa, does not end in removing from office those who have done absolutely nothing to improve the criminal justice system.

They pointed out that they have received anonymous complaints from relatives and persons deprived of their liberty that due to the investigations into the Tadeo case and the changes of directors in the San Miguel Penitentiary Center, they are being tortured and subjected to violations of their human rights in order to obtain information.
“We urge Mexican society not to forget the case of ‘Baby Tadeo’ because the demand to safeguard human rights should not be minimized to an act of ‘protagonism’, as mentioned by the president of the CNDH,” they said.

Today marks 21 days since the discovery of Thaddeus’ body.
