Overview
- Clara Brugada said the new protocol will require advance notice from the courts to the Secretaría de Gobierno, prioritize conciliation so eviction is a last resort, and ensure CDHCM and a city representative accompany each operation.
- The administration will propose reforms to regulate or remove the role of “auxiliares” or “cargadores,” citing repeated reports that these helpers act violently during evictions.
- Immediate relief is underway: 16 families from República de Cuba and 26 from Tonalá/Roma Norte receive hotel lodging and 4,000 pesos per month in rent aid for an initial six months.
- Housing officials are analyzing the acquisition and rehabilitation of the evicted properties so they can be returned as social housing for displaced residents.
- City leaders emphasized that evictions are executed by court-appointed officers, while former tenants in Tonalá accused the FGJCDMX of using force; a draft protocol could be ready in about 15 days, with broader legal changes pending Congressional action.
