The MC party proposes reforming the law regarding enforced disappearances; it calls for establishing that the search process should be "immediate" and without any prior deadlines.

More Information: The deputies Ivonne Ortega Pacheco and Anallely Muñoz Moreno, from the MC party, proposed to reform the General Law on Forced Disappearance of Persons, Disappearance Committed by Private Individuals, and the National System for Searching for Persons, to establish that the search for a person must be carried out immediately. "All actions taken to search for a Missing or Unlocated Person shall be carried out immediately, without delay, and from the first moment knowledge of the fact is obtained," the proposal states. It also proposes that the authority that receives the report or complaint of disappearance "must immediately and unofficially activate urgent search actions, without requiring any additional formalities."

In addition to specifying in the law that no protocol will establish waiting periods to initiate the investigation, nor any prior conditions or additional requirements for the start of the search for Persons. The initiative proposes that authorities train public servants responsible for receiving complaints, reports, or news, as well as for the search and investigation of Missing or Unlocated Persons, to ensure compliance with the immediate search. They must also implement outreach and awareness programs aimed at the population, with the goal of informing that there is no waiting period to report the disappearance of a person.

Today, many families face indifference, delays, and even rejections from authorities. This initiative puts an end to that discretion," stated Ortega Pacheco. According to the National Report on Missing Persons 2025, the crisis continues to worsen: cases have increased steadily, with increases of 7.3% in 2023, 6.3% in 2024, and a alarming 12% in 2025. "The disappearance of persons are not just numbers: they are lives interrupted and families trapped in uncertainty. Every minute counts, and every delay can be irreversible," warned Deputy Muñoz Moreno. em/apr News according to your interests.
