FGR Grants Victim Access to Tren Interoceánico Investigation Files After Weeks of Inaction

Overview

• Federal prosecutors received Juan Manuel Iglesias and his private attorneys, formally recognized their legal role, and opened folders 02/2026 and 03/2026 for review.
• Iglesias’s team said the summons arrived after 40 days without response and within hours of announcing a press conference urging transparency.
• Full copies of the case file were requested during the meeting and are expected to be arranged in the coming days under applicable procedures.
• The victim’s lawyers alleged the federal victims’ commission conditioned reparations on dismissing private counsel, a claim raised as part of their transparency push.
• The criminal probe remains active under a preliminary finding of excess speed—peaking at 111 km/h in a 70 km/h zone—with two employees detained, as victims also pursue complaints against construction firms tied to the affected track segment.
