The Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office of Morelos asked the Chamber of Deputies of the entity, the dismissal of Governor Cuauhtémoc Blanco, whom it accuses of the crimes of unlawful exercise of functions and falsification of documents; procedural fraud and falsification, as well as illicit enrichment and falsification of statements before an authority.
The Deputy Prosecutor, Edgar Núñez Urquiza, went to the legislative precinct where he submitted three requests related to the same number of investigative folders, so he requested a proprietary judgment against the state president, as the deputy prosecutor himself explained to the media.
He assured that the complaints against Cuauhtémoc Blanco were filed by Enrique Paredes Sotelo, a lawyer from Morelos, and by Gerardo Becerra Chávez who until a few months ago was in charge of an anti-corruption unit in the current government.
The deputy prosecutor reported that more officials are involved in the complaints, but first we must go to Congress to request the appropriate judgments: “for the procedure we are in, we must first request the formation of cases before the local Congress against the public servant mentioned,” he said.
The most serious complaint is for the alleged illicit enrichment of the governor and his team, made up of his half-brothers Ulysses and Ricardo Bravo, his cousin Edgar Riou and his friend Jaime Tamayo.
According to the brief submitted by the Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office, the complainants submitted evidence of alleged transfers, receipts and checks cashed by officials.
“The subjects presented a series of operations that are considered unjustified, which have a high degree of probability that they come from some illicit source, since they do not match their income or the relationship they have with their recipients or depositors,” reads the letter.
For his part, Cuauhtémoc Blanco denied the accusations against him. At the end of the ceremony for the anniversary of the creation of the State of Morelos, Blanco Bravo said he was willing to respond to the authorities if required.
“The one who owes nothing fears, here I am still, you know who this is coming for, these, supposedly investigations by Gerardo Becerra and Paredes. Paredes worked at the town hall with me for a while and Becerra was working with us, so, I take it from who comes from, my conscience is very clear and that they investigate me”, he emphasized.
The request for lawlessness poses a risk to Cuauhtémoc Blanco, since the local congress - made up of 19 deputies after the recent death of a PRI legislator - is dominated by the opposition, so the request for lawlessness could proceed and the state president could be charged with the three crimes that they are now charged with him.
On January 22, the Attorney General's Office of Morelos reported that Blanco Bravo was also being investigated for alleged links to organized crime, after a photograph of the Morelos governor was released in the company of three alleged local leaders of the Jalisco Nueva Generación Cartel ( CJNG), United Warriors and Tlahuica Command.
The photograph, published by El Sol de México, appeared alongside criminal leaders Irving Eduardo Solano Vera, alias El Profe, leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG); Homero Figueroa Meza, nicknamed La Tripa, head of Commando Tlahuica and Raymundo Isidro Castro, CJNG deputy El Ray, all of them accused of facilitating drug trafficking in Morelos.
According to the newspaper, the image was taken in late January and early February 2019, four months after the Blanco Bravo takeover. The material was found on the cell phone of Rosario “N” and/or Esther Yadhira “N”, alias La Jefa, captured last November in the Morelos entity.
Since the mayor of Cuernavaca, Cuauhtémoc Blanco has been accused of multiple crimes, including his alleged link with members of organized crime.
