Mexico’s Bermúdez Case Advances as ‘Amparo’ Claims Are Challenged and Argentine Clubs Tighten Game Plans

Authorities are moving on organized-crime charges while questions over possible identity fraud swirl around filings linked to López Beltrán.

Overview

  • Paraguay expelled and handed over Hernán Bermúdez Requena to a Mexican delegation from CNI, SSPC, FGR and INM, and he was transported to face charges including criminal association, extortion, kidnapping, drug trafficking and fuel theft.
  • Claudia Sheinbaum said the investigation will lay out the timeline and actors in the La Barredora case and noted Senator Adán Augusto López is willing to provide a statement if requested, with Bermúdez held under federal custody to execute an arrest order.
  • Reports that judges granted provisional amparos for Andrés Manuel and Gonzalo López Beltrán drew swift denials from the family, as attorney Francisco Javier Rodríguez Smith said his identity was used without consent in petitions filed in Zacatecas and elsewhere.
  • Colón de Santa Fe convened political and security leaders, formed a support group to visit the squad, sought to bring forward team concentration, coordinated match‑day protocols and will allow members current through August to enter to boost attendance against Deportivo Morón.
  • A rumored AFA move to cut two of four Primera Nacional relegations was discussed informally in La Plata without a decision, and at Boca Juniors coach Miguel Ángel Russo addressed discipline after Carlos Palacios’ on‑camera dissent put his starting role in doubt.
