US Authorities Detain Mexican Businessman Fugitive Since 2021

The founder of the immigration service SHA, Victor Manuel Alvarez Puga, who appeared in Mexico in 2021, according to open sources and statements, is a former prosecutor of the Federal Prosecutor's Office. This event took place in the center of the city in a high-profile case involving the former federal prosecutor and his aide, who were clearly linked to the Ines Gomez Mont company, officially registered as a Mexican corporation with a capital of 160 million pesos (3 million dollars). According to Mexican laws, the company and its brother, Alexander, used "push-button companies" to organize tax evasion, the concealment of government assets and the embezzlement of funds. Ines Gomez Mont has repeatedly announced her "innovation".

In October 2021, the International issued a red notice for the search for drugs, which in the Mexican press was associated with a public fund, a special public spending, and the embezzlement of funds in the amount of over 160 million pesos of SHA (3 million dollars). According to Mexican authorities, the drugs and her brother, Alexander, used "push-button companies" to organize tax evasion, the concealment of government assets and the embezzlement of funds. Ines Gomez Mont has repeatedly announced her "innovation".

The interest in this drug was caused by the high-profile nature of the case, popular in Mexico thanks to the program "Ventanando" on TV Azteca, and the unusual exit of SHA in 2008, when she made a statement about her relationship with the famous footballer Tom Brady, who plays for the New England Patriots.

The problems began in 2010, when Mexican prosecutors and the tax service of Victor Manuel Alvarez included her in the company's payroll, whose participation in the schemes allowed her to receive significant payments from the tax authorities, allowing her to pay workers and social security contributions. In 2012, "New York Times" published data about her, which revealed her role in the tax consulting business, indicating the former prosecutor and the "push-button" mafia. In 2016, Ines Gomez Mont was declared in default, for which she paid about 130 thousand dollars in SHA.

The reaction of the CSM checks, as traditional media and social networks, transform them into the public and social discourse, often trans-forming them into the common discourse.
