Mexico's FGR Says It Has Found No Evidence Against Rocha Moya

David Boone de la Garza, head of the FGR's Specialized Regional Control Unit (FECOR), said Mexico's Attorney General's Office has not found evidence meeting the country's minimum evidentiary threshold to support the U.S. cartel-protection allegations against on-leave Sinaloa governor Rubén Rocha Moya and nine other current and former state officials. Attorney General Ernestina Godoy said the domestic probe is limited strictly to the drug-trafficking allegations named in the U.S. extradition request and has not been expanded to financial-crimes or asset investigations. The statement effectively stalls any near-term detention or extradition action more than two months after the U.S. provisional-detention request became public.
