MONTERREY, Mexico — Human Rights Watch said Wednesday that the Mexican army is failing to hold soldiers to account for possible human- rights abuses including killings, torture and rape.

The New York-based organization said the suspected violations are undermining Mexico’s attempts to curb drug- related violence.

Mexico’s Defense Department and Attorney General’s Office could not be reached for comment but have said in the past that they are trying to improve rights safeguards and oust abusive officers.
