Overview
- Alejandro Vera Jiménez was arrested on November 7 in Cuautla, recorded in the National Detentions Registry, moved to FGR Cuernavaca, and transferred to the Altiplano maximum‑security prison.
- The FGR and federal prosecutors imputed organized crime and operations with illicit resources tied to the ‘Estafa Maestra’ scheme linked to Sedesol social‑program contracts.
- Judge Guillermina Matías Garduño imposed mandatory pretrial detention and granted the defense the duplicated constitutional period, with the linkage decision set for Wednesday.
- Reporting cites inconsistent sums allegedly diverted, including 239.3 million pesos from a TFJA resarcitory ruling and other figures such as 290 million and 450 million pesos.
- From prison, Vera released a letter denying wrongdoing, citing amparo rulings that voided a prior 2020 arrest order and alleging political persecution by former governor Graco Ramírez.
