The “suicide” of the founder and director of the weekly ImpactJuan Bustillos, should not go unnoticed. An old guard journalist, beloved in power circles in Mexico, was a liaison, confessor and even confidant of notable PRI members … among others, the Atlacomulco group, a friend of Carlos Romero Deschamps, of notable “devil’s lawyers”, of old renowned cops. His great journalistic mentor: Francisco Galindo Ochoa. At one time his friend and great political protector: Carlos Salinas de Gortari. His great political enemy at the time: Manuel Bartlett.
Few know the recent pivotal role of Bustillos as a link between a senior 4Q official and Emilio Lozoya Thalmann, father of former Pemex director Emilio Lozoya Austin. It is commented among the renowned lawyers that Bustillos together with his friend Javier Coello took care of the arrangements for Lozoya to be extradited to Mexico, not to step in jail and to release the declaration bomb that involves the PAN and PRI members of the past administration.
Bustillos left a brief letter in which he affirms that his motive is in the lack of money. It is not a personal letter to the family. It is a letter with a political direction … addressed to the government official – in that capacity – of his greatest confidence: Omar García Harfuch, head of Security at CdMx.
If Bustillos wanted OGH to come before anyone else, he wasn’t going to find out from a belated letter after others found out. For that purpose, a prior call should have been made. Direct Did it happen like this? Did OGH arrive in person… and what did they find? Is there any other final recipient of the information (that has not been disclosed) and for whom OGH was the most secure, discreet and reliable medium?
OGH has not commented on the matter, and the friends of the Jalisco journalist assure that a matter of lack of liquidity Bustillo would have solved it with three calls. It is difficult to understand that accustomed to pressure he has ‘broken’. His column always showed clues, data to report … taking care of the secrets of the group in the power of past six-year terms. It was encrypted. Like his posthumous letter.

The old-time colleagues agree that Juan Bustillos always hinted that he knew things that he did not speak about. Rest in peace.
