What could be a historic discovery of an alleged laboratory for the production of synthetic heroin better known as fentanyl was detected in the San Marcos neighborhood by the State Preventive Police (PEP)

Anton Petrov Kulkini, 48 years old and of Russian origin, and Iván Arredondo Ramírez, 50, from Caborca, Sonora, were detained by agents of the State Preventive Police, in an address in the San Marcos neighborhood in Mexicali, It worked as a laboratory for the production of synthetic heroin, better known as fentanyl.

This action was the result of the tasks performed in at least six months of monitoring and intelligence work by the PEP, achieving the arrest of two subjects, Ivan "N", 50 years old, originally from Caborca, Sonora, and Anton "N", 48 years old, of Russian origin.



The subjects were arrested in possession of approximately 20,000 pills of synthetic heroin known as fentanyl which is 300 times more potent than the heroin of origin.

The laboratory is located on Avenida Paseo de la Rumorosa number 527, interior 12, of the aforementioned area. It is believed that the place is located machinery, materials and chemical precursors for the production of fentanyl.

Those arrested along with the drug were placed at the disposal of the Public Ministry of the Federal Jurisdiction who will be responsible for determining their legal status.

According to the part of the state corporation derived from the research work it was possible to identify the structure of the international organization behind this case, as well as the location of the laboratory located on Paseo de la Rumorosa avenue number 527, interior 12, of the aforementioned zone.

It is believed that the place has technology, machinery, materials and chemical precursors for the elaboration of the aforementioned drug, for which the PEP officials notified the facts to the federal authority and for security established a custody operation in the area waiting for the search warrant to be released.

The address   marked with number 523, located on La Rumorosa Avenue, was surrounded by heavily armed federal and state agents, who closed the road and entered the building that managed to be located after several arrests and two months of investigation.

Federal Ministerial Police entered at around 5:30 p.m. in a place located on the second floor of the building. Elements of Expert Services arrived with special equipment before the possibility that there were chemicals harmful to health.

After inspecting the area, the safe entry was considered and they detected a huge amount of fentanyl pills, in addition to other chemicals that are presumed to be synthetic drugs.

This Monday,   the search warrant was authorized, when federal police were able to confirm what was inside the building.

    2. 9:52; Russians are organized trafficking cocaina and tachas to Europa, Canadá and USA for maybe 20 years. Russians work in Caracus, San Cristobal, and even more in Santa Cruz de la Sierra because Maduro and Morales do not like USA and will never do extradition to USA.

    3. Lol Russians have been dealing with and working with Mexican cartels for a long time. Way before mencho was a "capo".
      I remember there was a Russian spetsnaz training BLO sicarios back in 2008.
      There were also a couple of German brothers working as hitmen for CDG in Miguel Aleman in 2006.

  3. Humbly I'd say this is a real big story outside of the Mexico/Borderland scene. About last year, a Chinese-run fentanyl lab was busted in the Philippines.

  7. There is no way a Russian is down in BC making fake percs without him being connected to Russian organized crime. My guess is these were destined for New York.
