Overview
- Federal prosecutors asked the United States and Argentina to hand over Israel Patrón Reyes and Guillermo Loaiza Gómez, who were located in those countries.
- The FGR says the case stems from 2016–2021 contracts to rent and later acquire sites for seven state police facilities across Michoacán.
- Authorities cite alleged embezzlement and money laundering offenses, and Mexican courts have issued arrest warrants in the case.
- The extradition files include documentary and forensic evidence assembled by the FGR following complaints and audits from the federal auditor.
- Four former officials are already jailed in Mexico, and ex‑governor Silvano Aureoles remains wanted with an Interpol notice as the new requests await judicial review abroad.
