Chihuahua special prosecutor Wendy Paola Chávez stated four foreigners, not two, were at the April 19 raid in northern Mexico, where two CIA officers and two Mexican officials died in a car crash.
The foreigners, whose identities remain partly unconfirmed, worked with the state investigative agency and had limited involvement, with no direct operational role except with the agency’s director, who also died.
President Claudia Sheinbaum has launched a federal investigation into possible illegal CIA activities and demanded clarification from the US, as Mexican law bars unauthorized foreign agents from operating in the country.
