Authorities in Mérida, Yucatán, have initiated legal proceedings regarding tax violations and aggravated extortion.

The Attorney General's Office has linked an individual, Carlos N., to a criminal process for the probable crime of vacating a fiscal domicile without notification. Following an investigation by the Tax Administration Service, a judge prohibited the individual from leaving Mexico and required monthly check-ins.

In a separate case, the State Attorney General's Office has processed Erick Alejandro G. G. and Alexis de Dios C. for aggravated extortion. The suspects allegedly used phone calls and messaging apps to pose as property owners, coercing employees into depositing cash and convincing security personnel to open safes to steal cash and jewelry.
