Victims of military torture fear Mexico security bill

JIUTEPEC, Mexico: One afternoon, young Mexican engi neer Jethro Sanchez was out partying. Hours later, he was dying, his father says — burned with acid and choking on earth as soldiers buried him alive.

Mexico called in the armed forces a decade ago to fight drug crime. But critics say the military has not been trained for that kind of police work and has ended up torturing innocent suspects.
