VIDEO: Rubén Rocha arrives at Sinaloa Government Palace, says 'I'm coming to take office again'

Rubén Rocha Moya returned to his post as Governor of Sinaloa, ending a 112-day leave of absence. His arrival at the Government Palace was met by a protest from mothers searching for their disappeared relatives. They presented him with documents related to their search efforts.

Rocha Moya, who had taken leave following accusations of alleged ties to drug trafficking, stated he was returning to resume his duties. As he approached the palace, a mother searching for her son directly addressed him, expressing her distress over the local search commission's actions. She then handed him a folder containing information about potential clandestine graves.

Responding to the mother, Rocha Moya promised to review the documents during the week. He then entered the Government Palace without taking further questions from the media. The governor had previously denied any wrongdoing, asserting there was no evidence to support criminal accusations against him.
