Sylvia Pasquel files lawsuit against magazine for defamation

Mexican actress Sylvia Pasquel has initiated legal action against a magazine following a publication regarding her late sister, Viridiana Alatriste. The magazine reportedly claimed Pasquel was involved in a romantic dispute between Alatriste and Jaime Garza, revisiting the matter decades after Alatriste's death in a car accident.

Pasquel's attorney, Gustavo Herrera, stated that the article exceeds the limits of information and damages Pasquel's reputation, privacy, and psychological well-being. He noted that the publication implies Pasquel was responsible for her sister's death. The legal proceedings are currently being pursued through civil channels to seek compensation for moral damages and the unauthorized commercial use of Pasquel's image. The legal team has reserved the right to pursue criminal charges against the magazine and the journalist involved.
