Overview
- Federal deputy Sergio Gutiérrez Luna and Tamaulipas Congress president Humberto Prieto Herrera filed the complaint with the FGR alleging García Cabeza de Vaca’s role in “huachicoleo fiscal.”
- The lawmakers delivered roughly 100,000 signatures to the Supreme Court to press a related legal challenge and urged the FGR to open an immediate probe and request extradition.
- The accusers cited the circulation of rail tank cars with presumed stolen fuel in Tamaulipas and public remarks attributed to the ex‑governor’s brother as part of their claims.
- The new filing adds to existing investigation files for organized crime, money laundering and tax fraud tied to García Cabeza de Vaca’s 2016–2022 governorship.
- The PAN named García Cabeza de Vaca its representative for North America and dismissed the complaint as political persecution, while the FGR had not issued a public response.
