Mexico faces a highly violent historical moment characterized among many things by the high rates of disappearance of people. No family is exempt from this atrocity and it becomes a necessity for Judicial Institutions to establish strategies and guidelines to intervene and reduce this problem.
Throughout the national territory, findings of clandestinely deposited corpses are frequently reported, which are difficult to identify, either due to the conditions in which they are found or the level of violence exerted on the remains.If we consider that the right to identity and individualization is recognized worldwide, it can be said that depriving any individual of this is an act of violence at various levels, including the psychological level for the immediate emotional circle, a crime that must be punished. Given these facts, the authorities must provide society with the security and tranquility of knowing the whereabouts of their loved ones, this being one of the many guarantees that must be granted to society.The above and to reduce impunity, one of the strategies that have been planned at the national level is the implementation of an Accusatory Justice system in which multidisciplinary investigations are promoted where the optimal execution of the law is guaranteed. law, which in turn seeks to reduce violence rates.
