Veracruz Governor Rocío Nahle acts on school fee claims, highway remains, Misantla hospital

Parents in Martínez de la Torre complained that some school parent‑association committees are still demanding cash for enrollment and re‑enrollment despite the state’s decree that public schools may not charge any fees. Governor Rocío Nahle reiterated that no director, teacher or committee has the authority to condition admission on payment and called for a thorough review and sanctions against those who ignore the policy.

The governor also confirmed that human remains recovered in five bags on the Veracruz‑Puebla Highway 150‑D are “old bones” and that the state Attorney General’s Office is conducting forensic studies to identify them. She said the case is "strange" and that investigators will provide further details when available. In a related matter, Nahle said a family’s complaint of intimidation by two state police patrols will be examined by internal affairs.

Finally, Nahle affirmed that the hospital project in Misantla remains on track as part of the works promoted by President‑elect Claudia Sheinbaum. The plan, stemming from a pledge made during Sheinbaum’s visit, will use a newly offered site after the previous unfinished structure was deemed unauthorized by civil‑protection authorities. The governor also rejected rumors that she might leave the Veracruz administration for Pemex, emphasizing her commitment to the state’s agenda.
