Mexican judge closes case against immigration chief over Juarez fire

Original: Mexican judge closes the case against immigration chief Francisco Garduño over 2023 Juarez fire

A Mexican judge has closed the case against Francisco Garduño, head of the country's immigration institute, over the March 2023 fire at a detention facility in Ciudad Juárez that killed dozens of migrants. Garduño had faced charges of culpable harm and abuse of authority, and the decision to drop the case against him is drawing fresh scrutiny of official accountability for the disaster.
