”Today Morelos will begin to do justice,” he published on his networks.
Vera was linked to the Master Scam since mid-2020. In 2018, the former rector sought a candidacy to govern Morelos, but lost to Cuauhtémoc Blanco.
The Master Scam consisted of simulating operations to divert federal resources. It was revealed through an investigation carried out by journalists from Animal Político.
The Superior Audit Office of the Federation (ASF) identified Vera as responsible for the million-dollar diversions.
The diversion of the UAEM occurred at the end of 2013. Authorities from this university received amounts from the Ministry of Social Development (Sedesol) to allegedly use in a company that turned out to be a ghost.
In October 2024, the first chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation (SCJN) rejected a direct amparo in review filed by the Superior Audit of the Federation (ASF) and therefore definitively acquitted Rosario Robles, former Secretary of Social Development Rosario Robles, for the crime of improper exercise of public service in the Master Scam case.
The case of the Master Scam was illustrated with the name of the former official, however, nothing was ever proven against her. Today he is free.
