Vic: Cabal to appeal extradition order = 2
Magistrate HANNAN says CABAL argued he faced persecution in Mexico because he had not
been willing to give Mexican President ERNESTO ZEDILLO substantial financial support in
the 1994 presidential elections.
CABAL had also argued the Mexican government was targeting him in order to ensure he
did not talk about illegal political campaign contributions.
But the magistrate says if CABAL and PASINI genuinely believe they are being pursued
for the purpose of prosecuting them on account of their political opinions, they should've
sought political asylum.
