World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported22m ago
Rubén Rocha Moya, governor of the Mexican state of Sinaloa, has announced his indefinite retirement from office amid heavy criticism and ongoing drug trafficking accusations he faces in the United States. The decision to step down came on Saturday, just one day after he had resumed his official functions.
The development follows heightened public pressure and international scrutiny. Derek Maltz, former acting director of the DEA, publicly addressed Rocha Moya on social media platform X, reposting a portion of a U.S. Department of Justice statement and declaring that it is time for the governor to be held accountable for the charges against him.
