Federales
"Federales" refers to federal law enforcement agencies and officers in Mexico, responsible for enforcing national laws across the entire country. They operate under the federal government, handling national security, organized crime, drug trafficking, immigration, and other serious criminal issues. Similar to the FBI or DEA in the United States, Federales have jurisdiction over crimes that cross local or state boundaries, ensuring law enforcement coordination at a national level. Their role is crucial in maintaining stability, safety, and legal order throughout Mexico.
