Do Mexican citizens have the right to a fair trial?

Yes, Mexican citizens have the right to a fair trial, as guaranteed by the Mexican Constitution. Article 14 ensures that no one can be deprived of liberty without due process, and Article 20 outlines the rights of individuals in criminal proceedings, including the presumption of innocence and the right to legal representation. Additionally, reforms in 2008 strengthened the legal framework for due process, promoting transparency and the adversarial system. However, challenges remain in practice, including issues related to corruption and access to justice.
