President Andrés Manuel López Obrador revealed and celebrated this Friday that businessman Ricardo Salinas Pliego had paid 2,722 million pesos in taxes owed by his companies.
“I want to take this opportunity to point out that the Salinas Pliego companies have paid a tax credit of just over 2 thousand 722 million pesos. This in accordance with a resolution of the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation. I celebrate and thank you for respecting this judicial mandate, because there was a desire to respect the Court’s resolution. Some protections had been filed and they were withdrawn and the SCJN resolution was accepted as res judicata,” the president commented.
