Overview

• INE’s General Council voted unanimously to close the five-year case without sanctions, concluding it could not prove illicit party financing tied to the 2020 videos.
• The Unit of Fiscalization reported no banking records, accounting entries, or tax documentation establishing the origin, amount, destination, or partisan use of the cash shown.
• FISEL’s October 2022 decision not to prosecute, noting postproduction alterations in the videos, undercut the material’s legal weight according to INE counselors.
• Investigators said limited inter-agency cooperation hampered the probe, including a refusal by Mexico City’s Superior Court to provide information, prompting an internal-control referral and calls to strengthen fiscalization tools.
• In the same session, INE unanimously rejected Morena’s request to open an ex officio investigation into PRI leader Alejandro ‘Alito’ Moreno, citing legal constraints, as party representatives traded accusations over corruption.
