Overview

  • Sala Superior magistrates split 3–2 to confirm that Blanco and his logistics chief, Arturo Millán, excluded federal deputy Juanita Guerra from the main platform at the 2023 Cuautla parade.
  • The tribunal ordered both officials to be inscribed for 18 months in the INE’s national registry of gender-based political violence offenders.
  • The definitive ruling mandates that Blanco and Millán complete a course on women’s rights and receive bibliographic materials to study protection and promotion of women’s political participation.
  • Despite retaining his federal deputy seat and constitutional immunity, Blanco is barred from seeking or being nominated for any elected office during the sanction period.
  • Morelos’s Chamber of Deputies and the state Governor’s Office have been notified to assess further legal or administrative penalties once the sentence is final.
