IDPET provides legal aid to elderly inmates in Tamaulipas

The Tamaulipas State Public Defender's Institute (IDPET) conducted legal assistance and procedural review sessions for elderly inmates at the Sanction Execution Centers (CEDES) in Reynosa and Matamoros. These activities were held in observance of Senior Citizens' Day.

Led by Director General Roxana Guerrero Galván, the initiative aimed to ensure that vulnerable elderly individuals deprived of their liberty receive free, technical legal defense in accordance with due process. In Reynosa, officials provided individual attention and case reviews for 10 elderly persons. In Matamoros, the legal team provided assistance and procedural follow-ups for 30 elderly individuals.
