Playa del Carmen Opens 12 Cases Against Former Officials From Previous Administration
Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo — The Internal Control Office of the Playa del Carmen city council has opened 12 cases against former public officials from the administration of Lili Campos Miranda, which ended in 2024. Among those under investigation is former treasurer Kira Iris San, who is challenging the proceedings through legal appeals.
Cristina Alcérreca, head of the Internal Control Office, acknowledged that the public is eager for information but said she cannot provide details due to the presumption of innocence for those involved.
According to court records, Kira Iris San lost an appeal against one of the cases but has filed a review. A constitutional hearing scheduled for last Friday in another appeal was postponed because the court lacked a justified summary of the case.
Alcérreca noted that some names appear in multiple cases, while other cases involve several former officials. She declined to discuss amounts, as the cases are still in the substantiation phase.
If the cases move past this stage and survive the appeals process, the Administrative Justice Tribunal will determine responsibilities and impose any sanctions.
