diego727, thanks for that.
From your post, I infer that legally, based on what is currently knowable, the pilot in command was not properly qulaified to conduct the flight, but would have been once the sun came up.
"Night VFR in Mexico"
If I understand what you are saying correctly, at night time you are required to be operating under an IFR flight plan in Mexico.
Do I have that right?
