PAN Files Federal Complaint Over Alleged Police Repression at Mexico City Youth March

Party figures plan to press the case in Washington, rejecting claims they orchestrated the protest.

Overview

  • PAN leader Jorge Romero Herrera filed a complaint with the federal prosecutor’s office seeking an investigation into who ordered the security response at the Nov. 15 Generation Z march.
  • The filing asks prosecutors to examine the origin of the march’s convocation and to clarify reports about a so‑called black bloc allegedly appearing near barriers by the National Palace.
  • Romero contends the violence was carried out by security forces rather than by protesters and argues the episode chills the constitutional right to demonstrate.
  • He denied that PAN or Mexico City mayors Alessandra Rojo and Mauricio Tabe organized the protest and urged authorities to verify any claims to the contrary.
  • Separately, PAN announced plans to raise the matter before international audiences in Washington, while spokesman Jorge Triana alleged links between the black bloc and Morena but acknowledged he lacks proof and wants investigators to test that line.
