Overview

• PAN deputy Federico Döring urged authorities to call Senator Adán Augusto López to testify following the transfer of Hernán Bermúdez Requena to Mexico.
• Döring asserted that Bermúdez’s own testimony, along with protected-witness accounts, alleges Bermúdez acted under direct orders from López.
• The opposition contends the alleged political-criminal ties trace back to the 2018 Tabasco election, when Bermúdez purportedly worked to benefit López’s candidacy.
• Döring argued that Attorney General Alejandro Gertz Manero’s earlier rationale for not summoning López—lack of direct testimony—no longer applies.
• Reports identify Bermúdez as linked to the criminal group known as La Barredora, and no formal response or action by the FGR or Congress has been reported yet.
