The arrest took place at 9:40 a.m. this Thursday.



For the third time, elements of the Federal Forces have arrested Armando G., also known as Delta 1, identified as the leader of the elite hit squad known as the Deltas, of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel.

According to the National Registry of Detentions, the arrest took place at 9:40 a.m. this Thursday. At the time of his arrest, Armando, who is 1.70 meters tall, was wearing braces, black sneakers, black shorts, a pink t-shirt, and a black sweatshirt with bright orange accents.

Although the National Registry of Detentions does not mention the location where Armando G. was apprehended, sources close to the investigation indicate that the operation to capture him took place in the municipality of Zapopan.

First Arrest
Armando G, also known as Máximo, was first arrested on June 21, 2020, on the streets of the Jardines del Country neighborhood in the municipality of Guadalajara. The reasons why Gómez Núñez was released after his 2020 capture remain unknown.

Second Capture
Last Monday, October 28, 2024, National Guard officers arrested Delta 1 for the second time at 5:03 PM on Patria Avenue, between Lago Superior and La Presa avenues, in the Lagos del Country neighborhood, the same neighborhood where he was captured in 2020.

At the time of the arrest, the National Guard seized a vehicle, a rifle loaded with 10 rounds, plastic bags containing 1.053 kilograms of methamphetamine, and three magazines with a total of 49 live rounds.

The Attorney General's Office reported that Armando G was indicted for drug offenses, specifically simple possession of methamphetamine hydrochloride, as well as possession of a firearm, magazines, and ammunition for the exclusive use of the Army, Navy, and Air Force. In addition to the indictment, the District Judge based in Almoloya de Juárez, State of Mexico, ordered justified pretrial detention at Federal Social Rehabilitation Center No. 1 in Altiplano and granted four months for the complementary investigation.

However, last May, Armando G, identified as the third-in-command of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), was granted house arrest by a federal judge.

Delta 1 Controlled Illicit Activities in Puente Grande
According to federal investigations, Delta 1's area of ​​influence is in the Guadalajara metropolitan area. He was also responsible for the attack committed on May 21, 2018, in the Chapultepec area, against Luis Carlos Nájera, the former State Attorney General during the previous administration headed by former Governor Jorge Aristóteles Sandoval Díaz.

Armando "N," alias "Delta 1," the operator and chief hitman for "Los Delta," the armed wing of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), had his precautionary measure changed by a federal judge, who granted him house arrest, his defense attorney reported.

On October 28, 2024, "Delta 1" was captured along with a woman by the National Guard after an operation in the Lagos Country residential neighborhood in Zapopan, Jalisco. During this operation, the Attorney General's Office (FGR) reported that he was seized with firearms and cartridges for the exclusive use of the Army, Navy, and Air Force, and charged with simple possession of one kilogram and 53 grams of methamphetamine hydrochloride. He was subsequently charged with crimes against public health, for which he was brought to trial.

The alleged criminal was presented by federal ministerial authorities before a Specialized District Judge of the Accusatory Criminal System of the State of Mexico, based in Almoloya de Juárez, who ordered Armando "N" to be prosecuted and placed in pretrial detention at the Federal Social Readaptation Center No. 1 "Altiplano" and granted a four-month period for the complementary investigation.


Víctor Beltrán, the defendant's defense attorney, asserted that the federal prosecutors failed to substantiate the evidence presented to the judge against Armando "N."


"The prosecution failed to prove anything; once again, they fell short, offered no evidence, and ultimately tried to rectify their poor work by making laughable and unfounded arguments, as reflected in today's ruling," the litigant emphasized.


The alleged criminal's expert legal counsel submitted a brief requesting a change in the precautionary measure. The hearing was held remotely on May 1, 2025, at the Federal Criminal Justice Center in the state of Jalisco, at the Puente Grande Penitentiary Complex, before Control Judge Juana Beatriz Aguilar Jiménez.


"Through a ruling in favor of my client, it was proven that he has been housebound, allowing him to enjoy his full freedom, carrying out his proceedings outside the country, going to sign in every 15 days, and continuing with the technical tasks associated with his job, running his business as a merchant," the lawyer explained.


Latinus asked the Attorney General's Office what actions it will take following this ruling by the Control Judge, but so far it has not responded.
