Jean Succar Kuri, a Mexican businessman of Lebanese origin, was convicted to 13 years in prison for pederasty. All nice and well. But when will authorities actually go after his friend and protector, former Puebla Governor Mario Marín? To recall: The scandal that nearly let to Marin's ouster in 2006-2007 involved exactly these very two individuals: Marín and a close associate of Succar, Kamel Nacif, was heard chatting in overtly friendly tones (the famous phrase "Gober Precioso"), and plotting how to harass journalist Lydia Cacho, who was on the trail of Cancún-based pederasts with close connection to the Puebla government.
If new Puebla Governor Rafael Moreno Valle truly wants to be a governor of "change," he should immediately launch investigations of Succar's connections to Marin and his Puebla dynasty. One may only hope that the former's conviction creates some momentum here.
