He Judicial power of the Federation (PJF), headed by the Court, has been forced to fight a crude game of chess with the Palace and the entire ruling party. The central moves are aimed at collecting or defending, where appropriate, one of the most fragile pieces on the board: the former minister Arturo Zaldívarwhich is exposed by serious errors by its handlers, which seem to have left a favorable flank for its demolition.
He The next turn of this duel will correspond to federal judges and magistrates mentioned in the anonymous complaint for extortion practices attributed to Zaldívar during his presidency in the Court (2009-2023) through his then main operator, Carlos Antonio Alpízar Salazar, who was general secretary of the presidency – which he held – of the Council of the Federal Judiciary.
As this space was alerted, The contribution of the affected judges will be audios of telephone calls and in-person conversationsin which Alpízar and other actors linked to this plot are recorded while They are ordered to issue favorable rulings for processes that involve enormous sums of moneyunder penalty of being sanctioned under questionable accusations.
The resignation of Zaldívar Lelo de Larrea from the position of minister, in November 2023and his automatic transition to Sheinbaum Pardo's campaign as an activist for an ominous “judicial reform”, represented a provocation, a spit in the face of the judges, united in the face of the mistreatment of someone who came to the Court with no other career than the of the litigator defending potentates, among them Carlos Slim.
As already happened with Judge Elba Sánchez Pozos – interviewed by journalist Joaquín López Dóriga – there are legions of judges cornered, suspended, defamed by the actions of Zaldívar and his collaborators. This was also the case with Judge Jorge Arturo Camero, removed from his duties on corruption charges, and died in June 2022 due to cancer while facing a legal battle against Zaldívar to clear his name.
The chain of grievances against the PJF from the Palace, sharpened by the figure of a rowdy and quarrelsome Zaldívar, of course includes the arrival of his successor, Lenia Batres, the “people's minister”, a lawyer who emerged from the “Humanitas University” – the same one from which his brother Martí graduated. Batres, head of Government of Mexico City after he had to drop out of the UNAM Law School for not meeting the minimum academic requirements. “Humanitas”, by the way, does not have studies recognized by UNAM. This did not prevent Minister Batres from pursuing postgraduate studies there.
Notes: Javier Corral has had political prominence for more than 30 years, often uncomfortable for leaders or officials from the PAN, including former presidents Vicente Fox (2000-2006) and Felipe Calderón (2016-2012). He was governor of Chihuahua (2016-2021), where he fought the blatant financial misdeeds of his predecessor, PRI member César Duarte. He had a rocky succession with fellow PAN member María Eugenia Campos. At the end of his term, Corral distanced himself from the PRI-PAN-PRD alliance, which in November 2023 ended up leading him to renounce his long-standing militancy. Even as ruler, he had a rapprochement with President López Obrador and the now presidential candidate Claudia Sheinbaum, who entrusted him with proposing an anti-corruption strategy. Added to this was the fact that Morena nominated him to be a multi-member senator, to the confusion of a segment of the ruling party. Such is the context of the appearance of the documentary “La farsa”, which attacks his time as governor of Chihuahua. The material appears to have the fingerprints of the aforementioned Duarte and Campos. Could it also be from some character from the 4T? It will be known soon.
