Nuevo León's child-welfare agency fired a worker accused of sexually abusing a child in its care without investigating, then refused for over a year to accept the rights commission's findings, Mexico's national rights body found.

In Recommendation 147/2025, dated 17 December 2025, Mexico's National Human Rights Commission (CNDH) found that the Nuevo León state family agency (DIF Nuevo León) violated victims' rights by refusing to fully accept state Recommendation 10VG/2024, issued on 31 May 2024 after the state rights commission confirmed a complaint that a DIF employee may have sexually abused a child living in one of its facilities in late 2022. The employee was dismissed without the agency investigating; DIF officials repeatedly declined to accept the state recommendation in full, and the state commission declared it rejected in December 2024 and asked the state Congress to summon them.
