Other former PGR officials request the dismissal of criminal charges

Twelve additional defendants in an alleged administrative corruption case headed by former Attorney General Jean Alain Rodríguez have formally requested the dismissal of their criminal charges through the extinction of penal action. The legal maneuver follows the previous rejection of an identical petition made by the primary defendant in the ongoing proceedings.

The developments unfold within the context of the judicial hearings addressing corruption charges linked to the Procuraduría General de la República (PGR). As the trial on the merits proceeds, multiple former officials are actively seeking similar legal relief despite the earlier setback faced by the former attorney general.
