Antonio Enrique Tarín García (11 March 1976 – 7 April 2023) was a Mexican politician affiliated with the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI).
[1] In 2015, Tarín requested a leave of absence from that position to contend for the PRI's nomination for alternate federal deputy for Chihuahua's 9th district.
[2] When Javier Corral Jurado of the National Action Party (PAN) assumed the position of governor in 2016, Tarín was accused of corruption and mismanagement of public resources, in particular of diverting funds to shell companies created by himself, including one called FRITAG.
When an arrest warrant issued against him the same day by the Chihuahua prosecutor's office was served before he could be sworn in, a confrontation arose between the parliamentary factions of the PRI and its opponents from the PAN, PRD, and MORENA.
[10] On 7 May 2017, Tarín was arrested in a rented apartment in Mexico City[11] on fresh charges of aggravated embezzlement unrelated to those for which the federal judge had issued the injunction.
