Mauro "N" attempted to escape and hide in a property, but he was captured. During his detention, "a firearm exclusively for use with a wooden foregrip and rifle holder, two magazines, and 59 cartridges" was seized.
A federal judge charged Mauro "N", alias Jando, identified by authorities as a pilot of the criminal group Los Chapitos, a faction of the Sinaloa Cartel. The Attorney General's Office (FGR) reported on the indictment of Mauro "N" for his responsibility in the crimes of possession of a firearm for exclusive use of the Army, Navy, and Air Force, and possession of fentanyl and methamphetamine hydrochloride for commercial purposes.
The detained was arrested in Jesú Maria, Culiacán, Sinaloa, during a coordinated operation involving the Secretary of National Defense (Sedena), the National Guard (GN), the Secretary of Navy (Semar), the FGR, and the Secretary of Security and Citizen Protection (SSPC). According to the official statement, the forces were conducting crime prevention patrols when they were attacked with firearms by the occupants of a truck.
In a backpack he carried, "two transparent bags containing one thousand fentanyl tablets and another plastic bag with 990.2 grams of methamphetamine hydrochloride" were found.
In the initial hearing, the Public Ministry of the Federation (MPF) presented the necessary evidence for a Specialized District Judge in the Accusatory Criminal System, based in Almoloya de Juárez, State of Mexico, to declare the indictment and impose preventive detention. Mauro "N" was remanded to the Federal Center for Social Rehabilitation Number 1 "Altiplano", while a supplementary investigation is conducted, which will last for three months.
