Overview

  • He left Mexico City’s Reclusorio Norte after roughly two years and will serve arraigo in a residence in Querétaro as his case proceeds.
  • A court declined requests from the complainant, a Grupo Salinas–linked lender, for a geolocation ankle device and a 50 million peso bond.
  • The case stems from a 2021 accusation over a loan tied to club obligations, following a 2022 amparo and a 2023 recapture over a paperwork omission.
  • His son, Fidel Kuri Mustieles, obtained dismissal of charges for lack of evidence, according to recent filings reported by local media.
  • Any return of Tiburones Rojos to Liga MX remains unlikely for now due to an active 139 million peso suit, an embargo on the team brand, and a dispute over the Luis ‘Pirata’ Fuente stadium.
