A federal judge was dismissed the cause that was inserted Nora Guadalupe Ugarte Ramírez, protected witness in the research that was carried out in cfrom Elba Esther Gordilloby being appointed as the person who transferred the financial resources to the trade union leader, with which he got his freedom.
By declaring the cancellation of the process proclaimed by Ugarte Ramírez, the sixth District Judge in the context of federal criminal cases, Xucotzin Karla Montes Ortega, dismissed the lawsuit for money laundering and organized crime on 31 August.
One of the arguments with which the woman got her freedom was that the bank documents presented by the Attorney General's Office to support the accusation were considered illegal, because they were not obtained through the permission of a judge.
So if the money had a legal origin, trade union, it could not establish the existence of a criminal organization to carry out money laundering, so it rejected the crime of organized crime.
Ugarte Ramírez, who spent 19 years as a secretary in the National Union of Education Workers' (SNTE) general fund area, was denied freedom for more than 5 years after her arrest in Mexico City in February 2013. until 31 August 2018 when he obtained his freedom. She was responsible for payroll administration, payments to suppliers and travel expenses, she said.
On the other hand, because the funds received from SNTE and sent to Gordillo Morales accounts had legal origins, the allocation of money laundering had been discredited.
When he determined that in his case there were not enough elements to continue the lawsuit, the dismissal is similar to the cases of Elba Esther Gordillo Morales, Isaías Gallardo Chávez and José Manuel Díaz Flores, who also obtained their freedom this year.
