The Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) presented two complaints against the former governor of Chihuahua to the Office of the Attorney General of the Republic (FGR), César Duarte for money laundering.
Federal sources confirmed that the two complaints were filed since the beginning of 2020 and derived from information sent by the Attorney General of the state of Chihuahua to the FIU about a millionaire diversion of resources made during the management of Duarte Jáquez in the entity.
According to the inquiries, the former governor used front companies and names for the diversion of state resources to bank accounts linked to him.
Due to these events, since 2019 the UIF has blocked the accounts of Duarte Jáquez and of people identified as name-holders who acted through the front companies to commit the diversion.
The sources consulted indicated that currently the FGR keeps the two investigations in progress for operations with resources of illicit origin against the former state president.
César Duarte was arrested yesterday in Miami, Florida pursuant to an arrest warrant for extradition purposes for embezzlement and criminal association.
