A collective has leveled serious accusations against authorities in Cuautitlán Izcalli, alleging they doxed a mother actively searching for her missing son. The group has publicly demanded sanctions against the officials implicated in this act, which they deem a grave violation of privacy and an obstruction to her search efforts.

The alleged doxing is seen by the collective as a direct attack on individuals dedicated to finding loved ones. This incident underscores the perilous environment faced by "madres buscadoras" (mothers searching for their missing children) in Mexico, who often operate under threat and intimidation.
