VOICED : Juez suspende indefinidamente las corridas de toros en mayor plaza de México

A federal judge has indefinitely suspended bullfights at Plaza México, the world's largest bullring. The decision follows a lawsuit by Justicia Justa against bullfighting regulations in Mexico City. While the ruling can be appealed, it may take months for a final decision. Various civil organizations have sought to ban bullfighting, a 500-year-old tradition in Mexico. The local Congress has shown support for a ban, but a full vote is pending. Proponents of the ban argue that the law treats bulls as objects and ignores animal suffering, while supporters highlight the tradition and economic benefits, including significant revenue and employment. Currently, five out of 32 Mexican states have banned bullfighting.
