Although the investigation against the also former president of the PRI continues, Moreira decided to return to Mexico, subject to the visit of the Spanish authorities in order to testify.

Authorities of the Federal Police and the Mexico City International Airport said that Moreira did not request security teams to leave the airport and avoid the media.
