An SAT audit revealed multimillion-dollar contracts between Sedena and companies linked to Carlos Prats García, a close associate of Senator Adán Augusto López. The firms Avacor and Grupo Servicorvel obtained at least 32 contracts worth more than 1,100 million pesos (over $64.5 million). They mainly acquired uniforms, tactical equipment, and berets for the Army and the National Guard.
These companies inflated costs up to threefold, simulated competition among themselves, and violated bidding regulations. Additionally, they purchased products in China, even though the law requires importing military equipment only from countries with current treaties. This favoritism network demonstrates a clear pattern of corruption and influence peddling that has emerged from within Morena.
SAT detects accounting irregularities and suspicious transfers
The SAT's tax investigation uncovered serious inconsistencies such as unregistered bank transfers, false tax addresses, and unreported income. As a result, tax credits totaling nearly 27 million pesos (about $1.58 million) were imposed and accounts associated with these companies were frozen.
Other companies, such as Bercale Services, also linked to Prats, are facing thorough audits. Their accounting records show gaps and inconsistencies. This has forced SAT to review contracts, invoices, and transactions. The tax situation of these companies contrasts with the widespread impunity in other cases with less evidence.
