Paraíso Secretary Accuses Morena of Politicizing Investigation Against Municipal President

The municipal secretary of Paraíso, Tabasco, Carlos Alberto Ramón Güemes, has accused the state leadership of Morena of politically exploiting the investigation into the suspended municipal president, Alfonso Baca Sevilla. Güemes asserts that Morena is leveraging Baca Sevilla's legal situation for electoral advantage in the upcoming 2027 elections, characterizing it as a "spoils of war."

“

A fact of this nature reveals our human nature, where we mock, we enjoy a situation like this where there are collateral damages to families, to people detained for this situation.

Ramón Güemes criticized the way the ruling party is handling the matter, noting the public display of satisfaction by Morena officials. He expressed concern that such actions disregard the collateral damage to families and individuals affected by the investigation. The secretary believes this behavior reveals Morena's true intentions for Paraíso, prioritizing political gains over the municipality's well-being.

“

Where the state leader of a party comes out escorted by the president of the Board of Political Coordination, feeling that he has the spoils of war, demands and invites that the accused be handed over, and you see in his body language and verbal expressions how he enjoys what is happening. I think that should give us a clear reading of the sense of what that political current is interested in happening in Paraíso.

Furthermore, Güemes denounced an alleged social media campaign designed to instill fear and discourage public support for Baca Sevilla. He claims this campaign aims to deter citizens from attending a peaceful demonstration scheduled in support of the municipal president. The secretary described these tactics as originating from "perverse minds" focused on selfish interests.

“

In social networks, a fear campaign is being operated so that they cannot attend, arguing that federal operations are coming to make arrests of other people. I think that only happens in perverse minds and they prioritize their personal petty interests.

He urged citizens to exercise their constitutional rights to express themselves peacefully, advocating for order and tranquility in Paraíso. The defense team for Alfonso Baca Sevilla is reportedly working diligently to prove his innocence.

“

I believe it is the moment and the opportunity for citizens, freely and spontaneously, to have the constitutional guarantees that they can peacefully express their interest, so that things in Paraíso are in order, go in peace and that we do not have more events that alter the peace and tranquility that we aspire to in this beautiful municipality.
