The Secretary of Security said earlier that the subject was arrested on Monday in a raid carried out in Chiapas by the Secretary of National Defense, the Attorney General's Office, the Secretary of the Navy and the Secretary of Security. 

The head of the SSPC commented that it was intelligence and investigation work that led to the location of “El Güero Pulseras” in a place that was used to store illicit objects and armor vehicles used by criminal groups.

During the raid, 935 kilos of marijuana, 54 long firearms, 545 magazines, 65 boxes with hundreds of cartridges, one armored vehicle, nine cars and three motorcycles were also seized.

The FGR also said that the property and the weapons seized were handed over to the Public Prosecutor's Office, which will open an investigation against whoever or whoever is responsible for the crimes of carrying a firearm and possession of cartridges and magazines for the exclusive use of the Armed Forces.

For several months, Chiapas has been suffering an escalation of violence and insecurity due to disputes between drug trafficking groups in the region. According to organizations and activists, the Sinaloa and Jalisco Cartel - New Generation, as well as the self-proclaimed Chiapas and Guatemala Cartel, play a leading role on the border with Guatemala.
