Overview
- The Fiscalía General de la República formally dropped its investigations of Tania Contreras López and Juan Carlos Madero Larios, citing insufficient evidence of narco-huachicol links.
- Those probes stemmed from an April 26 complaint by PAN legal director Jesús Gustavo García Rodríguez alleging influence-peddling and organized crime ties.
- The decision follows a June operation in Reynosa that seized 1.8 million liters of stolen fuel, which the FGR blames for provoking cartel retaliation.
- A joint federal-state task force is pursuing multiple leads into the August 4 grenade and shooting assault that killed Delegate Vázquez Reyna.
- Authorities have arrested a suspect tied to the Gulf Cartel faction Los Metros, underscoring the deadly risks facing FGR delegates in Tamaulipas.
