Rubén Rocha Moya, the governor of Sinaloa, announced that the case concerning the missing miners has been formally taken over by the Federal Attorney General’s Office (FGR). He emphasized that as a federal entity, the FGR is now responsible for consolidating, managing, and disseminating all information related to the ongoing investigation. This transition means that the state government currently lacks precise data to provide to the public about the case's progress.

In his remarks, Rocha Moya noted that since last Saturday, the FGR has been actively overseeing the case, preventing the state government from making any detailed statements regarding the investigation. He expressed his inability to share specifics, citing a lack of confirmed information at the state level. This has led to a reliance on the FGR for updates, which has historically been the body tasked with major investigative responsibilities in such cases.

The governor acknowledged that information has been circulating in various public forums, primarily through the families of the missing miners, indicating a level of community concern and involvement in the case. However, he maintained that any developments or news about the investigation should be communicated by official spokespeople from the federal attorney's office to ensure accuracy and avoid misinformation. The situation remains sensitive, reflecting broader issues of accountability and oversight in the handling of such high-profile cases in Mexico.
