The irregularities with the largest amounts disaggregated in the document, featured by local media outlet Periódico Correo, are the following:
Based in the review of several projects, the researchers observed that $4,990,000 pesos were used without any valid documents to support those operations, so it was impossible to prove the origin of those payments made with resources of FISM on the year 2012.
These irregular deals were conducted between the former municipal Urban Development and Territorial Planning Office and private contractors such as: Projects and Developments EDJOSA SA de CV; Hecho en Guanajuato S.A DE C.V.; Regarro del Bajío S. A DE C.V.; and Suppliers of Equipment, Supplies and Services PESS S.A DE C.V.
