Overview
- Mexican authorities say Levy was detained on October 28 in Lisbon following an Interpol red notice requested by the FGR based on two active arrest warrants.
- The Tribunal de Apelaciones de Lisboa ordered his release with residency and identity checks, and he is not allowed to leave Portugal while the court reviews his status.
- The FGJ-CDMX and FGR continue extradition proceedings tied to cases opened in 2021 for alleged environmental and construction offenses, and for threats and damage to property.
- Prosecutors report Levy missed seven court hearings between 2021 and 2025, which led to the arrest warrants and activation of migration alerts.
- President Claudia Sheinbaum displayed an official Portuguese notice confirming the detention and said the case is not political, while Levy publicly denied being detained and claimed he survived an attack.
