Adán Augusto Denies Hidden Deposits as New Report Points to Gaps in Asset Filings

Journalists question his figures after he attributed recent inflows to legal services plus a U.S. inheritance.

Overview

  • He rejected media claims of million‑peso deposits, calling them false during a Senate press conference.
  • He presented headline numbers from recent filings, saying his 2023 taxable base was 22,626,398 pesos and that for 2024 he reported 24,539,998 pesos in financial assets with taxes paid.
  • He said two transfers followed a U.S. inheritance judgment, deposited into accounts at Wells Fargo and PNC in Houston from an investment held by his late father.
  • SinEmbargo reports he acknowledged roughly 78–79 million pesos from GH Servicios Empresariales, Operadora Turística Rabatte and Capital Cargo del Golfo, amounts the outlet says do not appear in PNT downloads and that copies he shared with media were truncated.
  • He denied any conflict of interest, stating he did not directly award contracts to those companies as governor, while separate questions persist over his relationship with detained former Tabasco security chief Hernán Bermúdez Requena.
