Inés Gómez Mont and her lawyer husband, Víctor Manuel Álvarez Puga, are in some serious trouble. The Mexican television host is reportedly on the run after allegedly embezzling billions of pesos.
Inés Gómez Mont and Víctor Manuel Álvarez Puga are accused of embezzling close to 3 billion pesos, which is about $146 million USD, from the Ministry of the Interior in 2016 and 2017, according to Uno TV.
Earlier this month, a federal judge issued a warrant for their arrest. It would soon be reported that the couple had fled the country upon learning that they were being investigated. The Mexican Attorney General’s Office has now requested that Interpol, the international criminal police organization, issue international location and capture orders against Gómez Mont and Álvarez Puga.
That order would allow authorities across the world to help track the couple’s location.
Gómez Mont wrote on Instagram that she and her husband “have not had access to that warrant, nor the proof that justifies it.”
“We are preparing to face this process and exercise all our rights,” she wrote.
