Un testimonio de una corte federal de Estados Unidos alimenta las acusaciones de que un exgobernador de Veracruz, M\u00e9xico, acept\u00f3 dinero de los Zetas, que luego fue parte del Cartel del Golfo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Las transcripciones fueron obtenidas <\/a>por la estaci\u00f3n de radio Noticias MVS por medio de una petici\u00f3n al Sistema de Transparencia de Estados Unidos. Fueron tomadas de un caso que tuvo lugar en una corte federal de Texas<\/a> el a\u00f1o pasado, sobre millones de d\u00f3lares que los Zetas lavaron con la compra y el entrenamiento de caballos de carreras en Estados Unidos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n El excontador del Cartel del Golfo, Jos\u00e9 Carlos Hinojosa, testific\u00f3<\/a> el 18 de abril de 2013, que el cartel donaba US$12 millones para apoyar la campa\u00f1a de un gobernador en el estado de Veracruz alrededor de 2004. Ese fue el a\u00f1o en el que el miembro del Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI), Fidel Herrera, gan\u00f3 el puesto de gobernador en Veracruz, donde sirvi\u00f3 durante los seis a\u00f1os siguientes. Anteriormente ha habido acusaciones sobre Herrera aceptando dinero del cartel<\/a> por medio de un intermediario, el empresario Francisco Colorado, quien ha sido condenado en Estados Unidos por lavar dinero de los Zetas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Seg\u00fan MVS Radio, en ese mismo caso, la corte federal de Estados Unidos tambi\u00e9n escuch\u00f3 el testimonio de un agente del Bur\u00f3 Federal de Investigaciones (FBI, por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s), quien afirm\u00f3 directamente que la campa\u00f1a de Herrera hab\u00eda recibido dinero de Colorado. Ese documento a\u00fan no est\u00e1 disponible en l\u00ednea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Otro testigo llamado por la corte implic\u00f3 a\u00fan m\u00e1s a la administraci\u00f3n de Herrera. El excandidato para el Congreso<\/a> y empresario Alfonso del Rayo Mora testific\u00f3<\/a> en 2013 que luego de haber sido secuestrado por los Zetas en 2010, fue abordado por el jefe de comunicaciones del gobierno estatal, quien le dijo que, a cambio de su liberaci\u00f3n, deb\u00eda ir a Oklahoma y comprar un caballo de carreras en nombre de los Zetas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Las transcripciones del testimonio dan detalles que dan luces sobre las operaciones financieras del Cartel del Golfo y su antiguo brazo armado, los Zetas. El uso de los Zetas de un amplio esquema de compra y cr\u00eda de caballos de raza para lavar sus ganancias del comercio de drogas es bien conocido<\/a>. Sin embargo, el testimonio de Mora implica que la organizaci\u00f3n criminal tambi\u00e9n estaba dispuesta a usar el secuestro como una herramienta para forzar a las v\u00edctimas a participar en este esquema, comprando caballos de carreras en su nombre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n VEA TAMBI\u00c9N:<\/strong><\/span> Noticias y perfiles de los Zetas<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Herrera, el exgobernador de Veracruz, nunca ha sido acusado formalmente de ning\u00fan crimen en M\u00e9xico \u2013a pesar de que la revista Forbes<\/a> lo ubic\u00f3 entre los 10 pol\u00edticos m\u00e1s corruptos de M\u00e9xico el a\u00f1o pasado. \u00c9l es s\u00f3lo uno de los varios gobernadores<\/a> que han ca\u00eddo bajo sospecha de tener v\u00ednculos con los Zetas y el Cartel del Golfo en
