The Secretary of Economy and Tourism of Sonora, Roberto Gradillas, and his driver were victims of a robbery on the highway between Culiacán and Mazatlán, turning a routine trip into a true drama. According to reports, a group of criminals stripped both of their belongings, leaving them stranded on the road and forcing them to walk for more than two hours before being rescued.
After this experience, questions arise regarding safety on the country's roads, especially in areas marked as dangerous by organized crime. The governor of Sonora, Alfonso Durazo, is called to pay greater attention to the safety of his team during road travel.
On the other hand, the former Attorney General of Nayarit, Édgar Veytia, from the United States, has admitted to committing serious crimes such as murders and torture during his term. There is speculation about the possibility of him returning to Mexico to face trials for these criminal acts after serving a sentence in the U.S. However, doubts arise about whether he will actually be judged or if he will be protected by high-level figures linked to his actions.
This case highlights the level of impunity with which Veytia operated in his position, revealing the complexities and conveniences surrounding the 'repentants' in Mexican politics.
