Mexico's Attorney General's Office announced that it has opened an investigation into possible irregularities involving military and state authorities during an operation in Chihuahua that uncovered a massive synthetic drug laboratory, a case that has already fueled tensions with the United States after the reported deaths of suspected CIA-linked operatives.
The investigation, confirmed by Mexico's Fiscalía General de la República (FGR), centers on the conduct of local and federal officials involved in the raid in northern Mexico, where authorities allegedly discovered one of the largest clandestine synthetic drug facilities found in the country this year.
