The demonstration briefly halted the civic-military parade outside the Morelos Government Palace. Scuffles broke out as security personnel attempted to contain the protesters, while some spectators urged officers to allow the demonstration to continue.

Morelos Attorney General Fernando Blumenkron said a judge had issued an arrest warrant for Francisco Javier "N", whom prosecutors identify as the suspected perpetrator of Tacoronte's killing.

"This person answers to the name Francisco Javier N and is attributed responsibility for Claudia's femicide," Blumenkron said.

Authorities have issued a wanted notice and expanded the search beyond Morelos to other Mexican states. Prosecutors stressed that the suspect is presumed innocent until his responsibility is determined by a court.

In a landmark decision, 54.3% of Italians voted in favour of establishing a republic, bringing an end to the reign of the House of Savoy and setting the stage for the birth of modern Italy.

The referendum was the first national vote in which Italian women were enfranchised, marking a milestone for democracy and gender equality. The vote was conducted against the backdrop of World War II’s devastation and the collapse of Mussolini’s fascist regime, a period marked by a deep desire for national renewal.

The Northern and Central parts of Italy such as Emilia-Romagna, Tuscany, Piedmont and Lombardy overwhelmingly favoured a republic, with some provinces reaching over 80% support, while Southern Italy and the islands: Sicily, Calabria and Campania displayed strong monarchist support, with votes exceeding 60% in some areas.

This regional divide reflected historical, economic, and cultural factors, including the monarchy’s longstanding ties to the South and the North’s embrace of modernist and anti-fascist sentiments.

The northern provinces—such as Veneto (85%) and Piedmont (85%)—delivered a decisive vote for the republic, reflecting the region’s industrial base and active resistance during the war .

On the other hand, regions like Campania (40.6%), Calabria (39.7%), and Sicily (39.0%) saw monarchist majorities, highlighting the South’s conservative leanings and the monarchy’s influence in the region.

The final tally was:

The 1946 referendum was more than a political choice; it represented a catharsis for a nation emerging from dictatorship, war, and occupation. It laid the groundwork for the Italian Republic, which was formally proclaimed on June 18, 1946, and culminated in the adoption of the Italian Constitution in 1948.

This transition also marked the end of the Savoy monarchy’s rule, with King Umberto II leaving Italy in exile.
