Mexico Launches Probe into CIA Agents’ Fatal Crash

(MENAFN) Mexico’s attorney general’s office has launched an investigation into the unauthorized presence of two US intelligence-linked individuals following a fatal car crash and their alleged involvement in a security operation in northern Mexico, according to a statement released Tuesday.

The Specialized Regional Control Prosecutor’s Office (FECOR), which handles federal crimes, will open two separate case files connected to the incident in the state of Chihuahua, near the US border. Authorities are examining whether potential national security violations occurred.

“The investigation into the presence of foreign individuals, due to its characteristics and relevance, in addition to considering the possibility that crimes related to national security may have been committed, has been assigned to the Special Prosecutor’s Office for the Investigation and Litigation of Complex Cases within FECOR,” a statement read.

A second line of inquiry will also focus on a narcotics laboratory that was dismantled on April 19 by Mexican security forces, where the two individuals are believed to have been present or involved during the operation.

Officials said both investigations will examine the circumstances surrounding the presence and activities of the foreign nationals, as well as any possible legal or security implications linked to the drug-related operation.
