    • 2015 August 1, “Solalinde denuncia las extorsiones a migrantes cubanos en México”, in El País‎:
      Otra supuesta variedad es que un abogado conchabado con los agentes entre en el centro de detención y les cobre a los migrantes cantidades desproporcionadas por darles asistencia, o también que los funcionarios les pidan dinero por concederles un oficio de salida especial, en realidad gratuito, con el que el Gobierno mexicano trata de desatascar la situación de los cubanos.
