Ortega dictatorship's honorary consul managed security at Ciudad Juárez death migrant center until Feb. 28
Elias Gerardo Valdes Cabrera has become a billionaire contractor for López Obrador, obtaining at least 130 contracts worth about 150 million dollars since AMLO is in office. Why?
Elias Gerardo Valdes Cabrera, Ortega's honorary consul in Mexico, owns the specialized investigation and custodial services company (Seicsa) responsible until Feb. 28 for security at the National Institute of Migration (INM) internment center where at least 39 migrants died last Monday in a fire. The Mexican government, investigating what happened as a homicide, is investigating five private security guards from Camsa, which succeeded Seicsa. Specifying this, former Seicsa employees have alleged that they extorted migrants to be released from the facility and used the security guards' debit cards to receive payments from the migrants' families and later share the money with officials from INM, Mexico's Migration Institute. Intriguingly, Ortega's chosen honorary consul has become a billionaire contractor for López Obrador, obtaining at least 130 contracts worth about 150 million euros since AMLO has been president. Indeed, Valdés' private security and industrial espionage firm still oversees some 20 key Mexican institutions, such as central social banks, the Attorney General's Office, the Federal Electricity Commission, the Welfare Bank, and IMSS, Mexico's Social Security Institute.
