President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) supported the Governor of Morelos, Cuauhtémoc Blanco, in the face of the accusations he faces of alleged illicit enrichment, falsity of declaration and unlawful exercise of his duties.

Questioned by the situation, the president called the recent requests of the State Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office to discourage the former footballer as “politicking and initiate investigations against them.

In addition, López Obrador gave an endorsement to the state president, assuring that he received an entity where the previous administrations were nourished by criminal groups.

“He has people who inherited him (...) They left him, to Cuauhtémoc, surrounded, tied up and prevented from doing things. And we helped him,” he endorsed during his morning conference.

The statement of the Chief Executive emerged in the context of the request for three investigative kits that the Deputy Prosecutor, Edgar Núñez Urquiza, submitted to the Chamber of Deputies to begin with a provenance trial against Blanco.
