MXGuadalupe Taddei Zavala, the president of Mexico's National Electoral Institute (INE), stated that the Technical Oversight Unit (UTF) would not initiate an investigation into the financing of the new political party 'Somos México' based on the Ruffo case. This came after Morena, a political group in Congress, requested the INE to investigate potential illegal funding linked to Ernesto Ruffo Appel, a former governor of Baja California and advisor to 'Somos México.' Taddei emphasized that formal complaints are required before any investigation can begin, noting that no such complaints had been received yet. Meanwhile, Morena has urged the INE and the Federal Attorney General’s Office (FGR) to look into possible campaign financing by the PAN and the formation of 'Somos México,' which they claim is connected to Ruffo's alleged involvement in fuel smuggling. The legislators argued that the scale of the hydrocarbon smuggling network involving Ruffo's company, Ingemar, suggests organized crime is trying to influence political power through corporate fronts and institutional complicity.
