Mexico City.- The National Institute for Transparency, Access to Information and Data Protection (INAI) ordered Mexican Food Security (Segalmex) to hand over the contracts awarded to Gainmate Comedores Industriales, a Diconsa supplier that was linked to a series of irregularities during Ignacio’s administration. oval.
According to information published by REFORMA, Eduardo Alejandro Murillo Landeros, legal representative of Gainmate Comedores Industriales, holds the same position at Servicios Integrales Carregin, a “ghost” company with which Segalmex simulated a sale of sugar for 465 million pesos.
In a statement, the INAI reported yesterday that Segalmex reserved the contracts with Gainmate for five years after an individual requested the information, arguing that it is part of an investigation.
Dissatisfied, the applicant filed a review appeal before the INAI.
When dealing with the matter, the presentation by Commissioner Norma Julieta del Río Venegas warned that Segalmex and Diconsa do not have “the character of authority in the investigation folders, since it is an exclusive power of the Public Ministry of the Federation to investigate federal crimes, so that the expected reservation grounds are not updated”.
“For the above, the INAI plenary revoked Diconsa’s response and instructed it to provide a public version of the contracts entered into with the company Gainmate Comedores Industriales, between January 1, 2019 and October 17, 2022, together with the annexes and documents that prove the deliverables,” he said.
One of the contracts awarded to Gainmate is for the supply of alcohol and gel during the pandemic.
