An alleged extortion network may have used seizures resulting from investigations by the Attorney General’s Office of the Republic (FGR) in San Luis Potosí to demand up to 10 million pesos from businesspeople in the hydrocarbon sector; this is according to a complaint obtained by Código San Luis.
The case would be related to the seizure and detention of more than 100 tanker trucks, whose owners, according to the document, would have legally demonstrated both ownership of the units and the origin of the hydrocarbons they were transporting. Despite this, the tankers would remain seized, and the process to obtain their release would reportedly have made no progress.
The reported events would be linked to investigation file FED/SLP/SLP/0001023/2026, based on which various searches and seizures would have been carried out.
According to the complaint, following these operations, alleged Investigation Police officers would have requested up to 10 million pesos to intervene in the release of the units and resolve the legal consequences arising from the actions carried out.
The financial demand, according to the document, would have been communicated to lawyers connected to the defense and representation of the company and the affected individuals. The money would allegedly be delivered in exchange for carrying out procedures to intervene in, modify, limit, or resolve the legal status of the tankers, tractor-trailers, semi-trailers, hydrocarbons, properties, and other seized assets.
The complaint maintains that this would not be an isolated incident, but rather an alleged structure involving private individuals, political intermediaries, lawyers, and people connected to prosecutorial actions.
Among the allegations, the company Grúas Tangamanga also appears, whose possible participation would have to be investigated and, if appropriate, established by the relevant authorities.
The document mentions Enrique Alejandro Flores Flores, a former federal deputy from the National Action Party (PAN), whom it identifies as “the congressman.” The accusation suggests that he could perform coordination, liaison, intermediation, or communication functions with public officials from the Attorney General’s Office of the Republic in San Luis Potosí.
Likewise, the information identifies the current FGR delegate in the state, Gabriel Campos Piña, as one of the individuals whose actions should be investigated to determine whether there is any connection to the alleged scheme.
The allegations contained in the complaint are preliminary and anonymous in nature. The inclusion of names, companies, or public officials in the document does not in itself constitute a determination of responsibility; therefore, it is up to the authorities to investigate, corroborate, or rule out the accusations.
