Former Guerrero state prosecutor Xavier Olea told that the current governor of Guerrero, Hector Astudillo, ordered him in 2017 not to investigate one of the rape accusations against Salgado, though Astudillo has denied that, according to a report.
The study says that while revealing the identity of the survivors of sexual crimes is a punishable offence, the same anonymity is not extended to alleged or actual sexual offenders.
