It seems Puerto Vallarta's beloved mayor, Luis Alberto Michel Rodríguez, may have a few more things on his mind than margaritas and mariachi music. The Jalisco Prosecutor's Office Specialized in the Fight against Corruption is taking a very keen interest in his administration – you know, just that routine federal resource investigation stuff. Nothing a relaxing vacation can't fix, right?

Apparently, there's this pesky investigation folder, FED/FEMCC-JAL/0000036/2024, suggesting some less-than-beachy activities surrounding improper works contracts. Something about the “use of powers and powers” – sounds like a bad superhero movie, doesn't it? Oh, and there's also that other file (557/2022) about those federal resource contracts. Yawn.
