La Luz del Mundo case is filed in Mexico without consequences

The intense rains that hit the Monterrey Metropolitan Area forced the suspension, this Monday, June 15, of the activities of the FIFA Fan Fest installed in Parque Fundidora. The decision was made as a preventive measure due to the risk for attendees, staff and volunteers.

Official suspension and weather conditions

The organizers issued a statement explaining the temporary closure:

“Due to the weather conditions that occur in the metropolitan area of Monterrey, and taking care of the safety of our guests, staff, volunteers and allies, the FIFA Fan Festival Monterrey will remain closed today, Monday, June 15.”

The rainfall has caused flooding, road closures and the mobilization of relief bodies in several municipalities. Local authorities report damage to main roads and low-lying areas.

Impact on the 2026 World Cup agenda

The Fan Fest is a meeting point for fans who follow the games on giant screens and participate in recreational activities. In Mexico City, the broadcast of the match between Iran and New Zealand was also canceled due to bad weather.

So far no changes have been announced in the programming for the next few days. The resumption will depend on the evolution of the weather. Attendees are recommended to stay informed through official channels.

Finding during patrol in Abasolo

The smell of fuel in the air alerted state police who were conducting tours in the community of San José de los González, municipality of Abasolo, Guanajuato. When they reached a piece of land, they found containers that were spilling hydrocarbons and an abandoned pipe.

The authorities seized 110 thousand liters of the product and a tanker truck. The state Secretariat of Security and Peace reported that elements of the Public Security Forces noticed that the truck was apparently unattended and that a strong characteristic smell of fuel emanated from the property.

Community risk and insurance

Some containers had gasoline leaks, which represented a danger to the residents of the area and to those passing through the area. The officers secured the 2019 model tractor-trailer with a tanker with contents, in addition to ten containers with a capacity of 10 thousand liters each.

The vehicle and the containers with hydrocarbon were placed at the disposal of the Attorney General’s Office of the Republic. Investigations will determine whether the insured objects are related to illegal activities.

State context

In the current state administration, from September 2026 to date, 6 million 785 thousand 236 liters of hydrocarbons and derivatives have been seized in the entity, with an estimated value of more than 162 million pesos. In addition, 62 clandestine taps have been located and disabled in different municipalities of Guanajuato.

Fewer declarations, more facilities

The Tax Administration Service received fewer tax returns from individuals this year. The reason: facilities granted to small taxpayers of the Simplified Trust Regime (Resico).

Gari Flores, General Administrator of Collection of the SAT, explained it at a press conference organized by the Mexican Institute of Public Accountants.

“Indeed, this year fewer declarations were submitted; those who are in Resico were given the option of not submitting the declaration starting this year.”

Flores acknowledged that this impact was “very important in the number of statements.” Another reason: decrease in complementary statements. “If we analyze the number of these compared to last year, it is the strongest decrease that we have,” he highlighted. Now taxpayers file their return only once.

Returns on the rise

Although the SAT expected more than 11 million declarations for fiscal year 2025, in May it reported 10,783,158. Of them, 7.9 million with a favorable balance. At the end of last week, 5.6 million requested a refund, with a restored amount of 44 billion pesos, higher than the 31,870 million reported in May.

Flores clarified that the balance in favor depends on the economic situation of each year. He denied that the SAT withholds returns due to inconsistencies in CLABE accounts. “In no way does the SAT act arbitrarily; we have other data,” he stated. The main reason: some taxpayers changed banks and it is necessary to verify.

In short, fewer statements but simpler and with record returns.
