If you moved this year, updating the address on your voter registration card is a key step. The INE recommends doing so to participate in decisions in your new area and maintain an official document with true data.

What do you need?

Go to an INE module with these documents:

• Legable birth certificate or Naturalization Letter (if you were not born in Mexico).
• Recent proof of address: electricity, property or water bill.
• Identification with valid photo: passport, professional ID card, driver’s license, military card, previous credential or school ID with photo.

Schedule your appointment

To speed up the process, the institution suggests scheduling an appointment on its official site. Go to www.ine.mx/credencial/, complete the required information with your CURP and full name. If you do not know your CURP, you can access it with name, date of birth and place of origin. There you will also locate the nearest module.

A Control judge linked Tomás “N”, Diana “N” and Jaqueline “N” to the trial for their probable responsibility in organized crime crimes for the purposes of kidnapping and aggravated kidnapping. The victims were five citizens of India, kidnapped in June 2025 in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua.

As a precautionary measure, the three defendants were placed in informal preventive detention in State Prisons 2 and 3 of the entity. The judge granted four months for the complementary investigation.

Investigation and capture

The case began when the Consul of the Indian Embassy in Mexico reported via email that five compatriots were deprived of their liberty. Based on that notice, the Special Prosecutor’s Office for Organized Crime (FEMDO) began the investigations.

Days later, agents of the Federal Ministerial Police, experts from the Federal Forensic Expert Center and elements of the National Guard executed a search warrant in five homes in Ciudad Juárez. Before these operations, the victims had already been released. During the investigations, they located the three men identified, who had current arrest warrants; They were secured and placed at the disposal of the judge.

Regional context

The connection to the process of these individuals—presumably linked to the Northeast Cartel—evidences the challenge that organized crime represents in the border area. The authorities have indicated that this type of crime affects both Mexican citizens and foreigners, and they maintain operations to dismantle kidnapping networks.

This Sunday, the plaza of the capital’s Zócalo welcomed families who came to celebrate Father’s Day. The Fan Fest, installed in the Historic Center, was the meeting point for those looking to mingle and watch the Mexican National Team match.

Roberto arrived accompanied by his wife Paola and his baby Ramsés. With the National Team shirt, they sought to follow the game and have a pleasant time.

“I think it’s nice to spend the day together as a family. We came prepared to watch the game and have a nice time. We wanted to take advantage of Father’s Day to be together,” he commented.

Despite the enthusiasm, Roberto pointed out that the turnout was smaller than expected.

“We thought there would be many more people because of the game and the date, but it was calmer than we imagined,” he added.

Víctor Manuel came with his son – of the same name -, his sister-in-law and two grandchildren. The family considered the experience positive to live together and share activities.

“It’s cool that they do this type of events because you can come with your family, watch football and have a good time without spending so much,” he commented.

The grandchildren enjoyed the atmosphere and the activities available. Víctor Manuel also noticed fewer visitors than expected.

“Yes, it caught our attention that there were few people; we thought it would be much more crowded for Father’s Day and the game,” he said.

The day passed without any reported incidents. Families took advantage of the public space to celebrate in a festive environment but with smaller attendance than at similar events.
