Mexico’s Attorney General’s Office found insufficient evidence for provisional detention or extradition and continues its own review while requesting additional U.S. materials. Rocha took a temporary leave in early May 2026, returned to office on August 21 amid criticism from President Claudia Sheinbaum and party leaders, and requested an indefinite leave days later. Trader sentiment reflects Mexico’s resistance to U.S. extradition requests, the absence of domestic arrest warrants, and uncertainty over whether ongoing bilateral tensions or further evidence could trigger detention by federal authorities.
