MEXICO CITY — Citing alleged rights abuses by Mexican soldiers assigned to the drug war, Human Rights Watch urged the Obama administration Monday to not release tens of millions of dollars in withheld security aid unless Mexico allows such cases to be tried in civilian courts.
In a letter to Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, the Washington-based group said Mexico’s military courts have failed to bring to justice troops that the group holds responsible for a “growing number of serious abuses.”
