Del 99%, impunidad en delitos de desaparición en México advierte ONG

The report highlights an alarming rise in disappearances coupled with extreme impunity, as the vast majority of cases remain unsolved and convictions are negligible. This stark disproportion between registered incidents and resolved cases indicates a systemic failure in the judicial response to forced disappearances. Compounding this crisis is a severe lack of transparency in national registries and inconsistent data across government levels, which obscures the true scale of the humanitarian emergency. The resulting data fragmentation prevents an accurate understanding of the situation and undermines accountability, leaving victims’ families in prolonged uncertainty while institutional barriers persist. This article is vital for open data advocates because it exposes how poor data quality, opacity, and inconsistent reporting directly enable human rights abuses. It underscores the critical need for standardized, accessible, and transparent public data to ensure accountability and inform effective policy solutions for structural impunity.
