Five More Linked to Prosecution in Mexico City Generación Z Case, Two Held

Most defendants will fight charges under supervision after reclassification of two attempted‑homicide counts.

Overview

  • A control judge bound five detainees to trial for injuries and the theft of police radios during the Nov. 15 clashes in the Zócalo.
  • Four of the five will continue their cases out of custody under precautionary measures, while Brayan Alexis remains in preventive detention for lacking a Mexico City domicile.
  • The court clarified that Brayan Mario is prosecuted for injuries and Brayan Alexis for robbery after the defense flagged confusion over the two names.
  • With these rulings, 18 people are now formally prosecuted in the case, 16 will proceed in freedom and two remain jailed after earlier reclassification of two attempted‑homicide charges to resistance of particulares.
  • Authorities report that 29 people were turned over to the Ministerio Público and 17 investigations were opened; a defense lawyer plans an appeal in a separate case, and local media report a torture complaint was filed with the federal prosecutor.
