Mexico FGR clears businessmen and Serprosep of federal investigations

The Mexican Attorney General’s Office (FGR) has clarified that businessmen Sandalio Alfonso Sainz de la Maza Zúñiga, Óscar Humberto Bristrain Tenorio, and Christian Pablo Varela are not subjects of any federal investigation, nor are they listed as defendants or victims in related files.

The clarification specifically addresses concerns regarding the security firm Serprosep and Armour King, which hold contracts from the Secretariat of the Navy to provide surveillance services at Mexico City International Airport (AICM). The FGR stated that these companies are not under investigation for any alleged illicit activities.

However, the FGR confirmed that Jorge Enrique Alberts Ponce, known as “El Yori,” remains under investigation for alleged crimes. This follows reports from Mexicanos contra la Corrupción y la Impunidad (MCCI) regarding security contracts at the AICM totaling over 1.194 billion pesos. While Alberts Ponce was previously linked to the companies benefiting from these contracts, the FGR noted that the other businessmen and Serprosep are not part of the specific investigation file FEITATA-MEX/0000928/2024.
