THE crime of Money-Laundering in Mexico

Abstract

The criminal phenomenon of money laundering in Mexico is punishable under both international and national legal systems; however, classic criminal law has been overtaken by the interests of international and national economic power groups. It is for this reason that at present a right is necessary that eliminates potentially dangerous sources, social enemies, through an exceptional criminal law that materializes substantial and significant reaches for the benefit of international societies, to protect collective legal assets.
