According to the Government of Mexico City, the Center will be administered by the Institute of Expert Services and Forensic Sciences (INCIFO), which is linked to the Superior Court of Justice (TSJ).
“The head of the Legal Department, Néstor Vargas Solano, led a visit – with representatives of different institutions – to the Dolores pantheon to locate a site to build it,” the capital government published.
He even maintained that the search commissions for people at the national and local levels raised “comments and observations” that contribute to the operation of the body center.

According to a report by the UN Committee on Enforced Disappearances (CED), to analyze the human remains of the more than 52,000 deceased people who remain unidentified in Mexico, not counting those who are added every day, it would take 120 years or more, because forensic services are insufficient, there is no public policy of human identification in relation to the disappearance of persons and several instruments provided for in the law have not been created for more than four years.
