New Twist in Vadhir Derbez Case! His Lawyers Claim to Be Unaware of Another Complaint Against Him
Por Carlos Rodríguez ·
Vadhir Derbez is back at the center of controversy. The Mexican actor faces an investigation for an accusation of alleged rape, while reports emerge about a second complaint that allegedly was filed by a minor following a purported incident that occurred during a cruise.
The situation took a new turn when Enrique González Casanova, a member of the legal team of Eugenio Derbez’s son, claimed he is unaware of the existence of another formal proceeding against his client. «I have no idea whatsoever, I have no knowledge of that matter,» the lawyer declared during an interview with the program Sale el Sol.
Is There a Second Complaint?
The controversy intensified after the Vega Mac Gregor Arellano law firm announced that it represents another alleged victim of the actor.
According to the versions circulated, the reported facts allegedly occurred during a cruise trip.
However, González Casanova explained that his team only has knowledge of the proceeding related to the accusation presented earlier.
The lawyer acknowledged the track record of the law firm representing the alleged complainant.
But he insisted that he does not have sufficient information to comment on the new allegation.
As of November 12, 2026, no official information has been released that would allow public confirmation of the details of that second case (Archived as: Vadhir Derbez: lawyers unaware of new complaint).
Why Hasn’t the District Attorney Been Able to Locate Him?
The General District Attorney’s Office of Mexico City reported on November 6 that it conducted seven in-person service attempts at six different addresses, without successfully formally notifying the actor.
The department is investigating facts allegedly occurring in April 2026 in the Coyoacán borough.
The authorities obtained an arrest warrant for the crime of rape.
But this was rendered ineffective due to an injunction promoted by the defense.
This means that Derbez can face the proceeding while free.
Although he remains obligated to comply with the corresponding judicial requirements (Archived as: Vadhir Derbez: lawyers unaware of new complaint).
Lawyers Assure That Vadhir Is Not a Fugitive
González Casanova rejected the notion that his client is hiding from authorities.
As he explained, the actor resides abroad, which is why he questioned the attempts to locate him exclusively at Mexican residences.
The defense also maintains that the injunction obtained responds to irregularities in the arrest warrant and that there are still pending judicial remedies awaiting resolution.
For his part, Derbez has rejected the accusations and his legal team claims he would have been the victim of an extortion attempt (Archived as: Vadhir Derbez: lawyers unaware of new complaint).
What Comes Next in the Legal Process?
The Mexico City District Attorney’s Office confirmed that the investigation remains open and that it will continue conducting the necessary proceedings to clarify the facts.
To date, there is no confirmed conviction against Vadhir Derbez on these allegations.
The actor maintains his right to the presumption of innocence while the authorities determine the next steps in the proceeding.
