Former Mexican President Cleared of Genocide Charges
MEXICO CITY - A judge cleared former Mexican President Luis Echeverria Saturday of genocide charges for his role in a 1968 massacre, in a blow to efforts to prosecute the country’s former leaders for rights abuses.
Echeverria, 84, was charged with genocide a week ago and was placed under house arrest but the judge ruled he could not be put on trial under Mexico’s statute of limitations, the former president’s lawyer Juan Velasquez said.
