Overview

  • The president said the names of Andrés and Gonzalo López Beltrán do not appear in the FGR case on huachicol fiscal involving Navy personnel and businessmen.
  • She described the purported amparos in their names as a political smear and asked prosecutors to determine who filed and leaked them.
  • Andrés Manuel López Beltrán publicly denied requesting any legal protection for himself or his brother against possible arrest.
  • Attorney Juan Francisco Rodríguez Smith Mac Donald said his identity was used without authorization on an amparo and announced complaints for identity theft and document forgery.
