López Obrador affirms that he will not shelve the 'Colosio case' because he considers it a state matter. The president has responded to the request of the son of the murdered PRI candidate, Luis Donaldo Colosio Riojas, that he grant pardon to the only person detained for the crime, Mario Aburto.

“I know that he no longer wants, nor does his family, to know anything about this, which was terrible, but it is a matter of State, and I want that, as far as I am concerned, the investigation does not stop," he said.
