In September, EL UNIVERSAL reported that intelligence authorities discovered that Ismael Zambada García, El Mayo, had associated himself with businessmen in alleged illegal activities in Mexico and Albania.
However, Falce García, legal adviser to the casino owners, assured that the Hysa brothers are hardworking people and have never had problems or ties to organized crime.
"Even in the smallest aspect of the business, there can be no irregularities or illegality in its operation, much less that these businesses and these people are connected to organized crime," he said.
Falce García pointed out that his clients' companies were investigated by the Office of the Attorney General (FGR), stemming from an anonymous complaint of suspected money laundering against Zambada García, which in May 2021 determined not to exercise criminal action. file FED/SON/AGUA/0002348/2020.

Ai shtoi: “Unë kurrë nuk kam pastruar para, nuk jam i afërt me atë subjekt. Zyra ime është e përkushtuar për gjëra të tjera. Ne nuk shohim ndonjë krim të organizuar, madje edhe krime praktikisht federale; ato janë vetëm patrimoniale ose ekologjike. Nuk ka lidhje me krimin e organizuar.
