Overview
- Salinas delivered a dossier of more than 100 pages in Washington, D.C., handing it to freedom of expression rapporteur Pedro Vaca at OAS headquarters.
- The petition alleges a coordinated campaign since 2023 using excessive tax audits, public denunciations in presidential briefings, and pressure on the judiciary under the López Obrador and Sheinbaum administrations.
- Grupo Salinas argues the actions seek to chill his speech and presents the case as a wider threat to pluralism, judicial independence, and property rights.
- The filing asks the Commission to declare the Mexican state internationally responsible and to order guarantees of non-repetition to safeguard due process and free expression.
- Local reports note the move follows long-running tax disputes in Mexican courts, and experts say any Commission process could take months with limited immediate legal effect.
