It worth to mention that the affected bank, in this case Santander, has not presented any register of the transactions made before and after of the date on which the crime was committed.
The defense team (15 attorneys in total) indicated that their clients brought different amounts of money for the purchase of vehicles in Merida and reiterated their innocence.
After the next hearing was set in one month’s time, the Office of the Prosecutor requested that this period be extended to 90 days to gather sufficient evidence and carry out the corresponding proceedings, however, this was rejected.
