Overview
- A federal judge from the Sixth District granted a provisional suspension to halt electronic blocking and urged NIC México to reactivate the bet365.mx and betano.mx domains tied to Ganador Azteca.
- One day earlier, Judge Luz María Flores Alva denied a provisional suspension to lift the UIF-ordered freezes on Ganador Azteca’s bank accounts at BBVA and Banco Azteca.
- With funds still frozen and prior operational suspensions by Segob, it remains uncertain whether the online platforms can meaningfully resume activity despite domain reactivation.
- Key dates were set: December 8 for a decision on the definitive suspension regarding domain access, January 22 for the constitutional hearing in that case, and January 26 for the constitutional hearing in the separate challenge to the account freezes.
- Authorities allege the use of third‑party accounts with inconsistent economic profiles and say the UIF referred complaints to the FGR and the Procuraduría Fiscal, while Grupo Salinas denies wrongdoing and calls the actions state persecution.
