Chihuahua officials on Thursday refuted claims by a former governor that he will be assassinated if a U.S. judge approves his extradition to Mexico.

“In the absence of legal arguments, the ex-governor’s defense is resorting to unfounded arguments … what we commonly call ‘grasping at straws,’” said Jorge Espinoza, special counsel for the state of Chihuahua. “His life is not at risk in any way here at whatever prison he is sent to once he is extradited.”

Cesar Duarte Jaquez remains in a South Florida prison after being arrested July 8 outside a car shop near Miami International Airport. A federal magistrate in New Mexico issued an arrest warrant against Duarte last April for the purpose of his extradition to Mexico on aggravated embezzlement and aggravated conspiracy charges.

Send him anyway. It's going to be fine.
