Mexico's National Guard transfer to army ruled unconstitutional by court.

Mexico's Supreme Court has ruled that the transfer of the National Guard from civilian to military control was unconstitutional, dealing a blow to President Andrés Manuel López Obrador who created the security force in 2019. The National Guard was created to replace the disbanded federal police, but last year, Mexico's Congress passed legislation shifting control of the National Guard to the military. López Obrador had argued that it was the only way to avoid the corruption that engulfed the federal police.
