Mexican authorities have "preventively" frozen on May 18, 2026 the accounts of Ruben Rocha, who has temporarily stepped down as governor of Sinaloa, after the New York prosecutor's office requested his arrest and deportation. Mexico's Presiodent Claudia Sheinbaum, who has called for conclusive evidence before taking action against him, belongs to the left-wing Morena party, the same party as Rocha.
