Court protects "precious gober", Mario Marín; orders to review preventive detention in the case of Lydia Cacho

A Mexican court granted an injunction to former Puebla governor Mario Marín Torres, ordering a review of his preventive detention over allegations of torture against journalist Lydia Cacho. The ruling by Magistrate Yazuri Aracelly Arias Raz stated that the current preventive prison measure violates rights such as legality, judicial security, personal freedom, presumption of innocence, adequate defense, and reasonable time limits. The court ordered a new resolution from another collegiate tribunal to determine the appropriate legal action. While acknowledging the gravity of the alleged crimes, the magistrate emphasized that the decision does not dismiss the victim’s rights or state obligations under constitutional and international law. Marín had previously been sent back to maximum security prison after losing his house arrest privilege.
