Threatening Banner Hung Following Drug Theft

"Sol Prendido" for Borderland Beat

Zeta Tijuana was informed that on Saturday, October 4, the heads of the Baja California Citizen Security Secretariat received a complaint alleging that members of the State Citizen Security Force (FESC) had participated in the theft of 180 kilos of cocaine around 10:00 a.m. in the Ojo de Agua area. The crime was committed using three Kia cars and a white pickup truck belonging to the corporation.

This weekly news media consulted with authorities on both sides of the border, and they reported that the organizers of this robbery, on the side of the FESC, were Myrcko González Murguía and José Héctor Valenzuela Bernal, alias "El Princeso," the brother-in-law of former governor Francisco Vega, who has been on vacation since August. In collusion with the leaders of the Arellano cartel, Crescencio Beltrán Murillo, alias El Chencho, along with César Quintero Beltrán, alias El Lico, and his operator James Bryan Corona, alias El Apache.

On Wednesday, October 8, at the end of the State Government's weekly press conference, Zeta Tijuana spoke with General Carrillo, who denied having received the complaint, ultimately stating that the matter would be addressed by the SSC's Internal Audit Office.

Between the night of Friday, October 10, and the morning of Saturday, October 11, 2025, the FESC's Internal Comptroller's Office informed six officers that they would be subject to a "preventive suspension," including Mirko and Princeso: Morua, Rendón, Guerrero, and Arámbula. However, on the afternoon of Saturday, October 11, these suspensions were rescinded.

On the morning of Tuesday, October 14, after commanders and investigators had access to unit records, GPS locations, attendance lists, and assignments, General Laureano Carillo received the reports he had requested from various secretariat groups. By the afternoon, the troop's voice was, "He already has some names."

At nightfall on Tuesday, around 7:30 p.m., in front of London College, located at 16838 Vía Rápida Oriente, Tercera Etapa Río, 22226 Tijuana, near the C5 facilities, where the offices of the various FESC directorates are located, a narco-banner signed by "La Maña" was hung, without specifying which drug cartel it belongs to.

This time, in the text, the criminals point only to members of the Investigation Directorate, this area doesn’t have white Kia cars assigned to it—as they had already argued in their defense during the suspension before General Carrillo—in the letter, the criminals changed the version of the original complaint and referred to a grey Kia and a white pickup truck. 

"This goes out to all you vermin. Especially, Ivan Mura and your faggot colleagues. The thieves Jorge Gaynor, Hugo Muñoz, Chistian Orozco, Susana Zavala, Aljandro Peralta, and Osuna Marcelo. Let's see how long those 180 kilos last. We're not going to shoot any innocent people, like the article Zeta published. We all know here that it was you fucking scumbags. And we’ve already located the grey Kia and white Silverado pickup. Horozco, you think you’re ballsy. We’ll see how hardcore you guys really are once we get into that armed confrontation. We’re going to destroy you gang of fucking homo cowards…La Maña."

Some of the accused members provided Zeta Tijuana with their version of events, indicating that they have already sought legal counsel. They stated that it's common for corrupt members of the FESC to "hang up banners" when they try to harm or implicate their colleagues. They concluded by saying that they have made their locations available to their superiors. phones and GPS. And on the day mentioned in the complaint, there were members of the investigation department in the eastern part of part of Tijuana, but in the Florido area, not in Ojo de Agua.

Ten days after the events were reported, the state security secretary, General Laureano Carillo, has still not provided any information on the progress of the investigation.
