Overview
- Authorities announced Sunday a one-year ban from public service for ISSSTE specialist Pedro C. for touching a patient during a consultation in Tlatelolco.
- The ISSSTE internal control office gathered evidence and the Federal Administrative Justice Tribunal, which hears administrative cases, issued the sanction.
- The Secretariat of Anti-Corruption and Good Government said the doctor may appeal and it will defend the ruling.
- Officials urged people to report misconduct through SIDEC, a citizen complaints portal for filing official complaints.
- No criminal charges were reported in the coverage, and the agency framed the action within wider integrity efforts that also included other recent sanctions across federal bodies.
