Overview
- Jáuregui published a public letter on Monday asking PAN senators, deputies and the party leadership to demand due process, protect his political rights and uphold the presumption of innocence.
- He stressed that he was first arrested by the Chihuahua state prosecutor on October 17 on charges of illegal exercise of public service and coalition, and that a federal warrant two days later led to his detention for alleged treason.
- The letter says Jáuregui defended Campos publicly during earlier attacks and claims her recent remarks linking him to foreign agents and corruption helped place him under suspicion.
- His appeal has provoked sharp criticism of Governor Campos within PAN ranks in Chihuahua, where some members now call her statements damaging to the party and accuse her of betraying allies.
- The dispute ties back to the April 2026 El Pinal operation that killed two state agents and two CIA operatives and could shape federal and local political battles as investigations and court proceedings continue.
