MEXICO CITY (Reuters) -Mexican senators on Thursday passed regulations stipulating how a judicial overhaul that reforms the country's constitution will be implemented to popularly elect judges.
Congress passed a judicial reform in September which calls for the election of judges by popular vote, a move proponents say will ensure the judiciary serves the people and not organized crime but which critics say does not adequately target those they believe to be behind high rates of corruption.
