Karina Barrón Perales, Secretary of Human Development and Substantive Equality of Monterrey, has been detained. She is accused of bribery and falsification of statements before the authorities, according to national media. According to the National Registry of Detentions, Barrón Perales' detention was carried out on Avenida Aceros, in the Mezquital neighborhood, in San Nicolás de los Garza, this Sunday, March 1st at 3:45 PM. Barrón allegedly falsified information in a complaint against Waldo Fernández, when both were competing for the position in the Senate. After the arrest of Karina Barrón became known, Fernández said in a video published on social networks: "Her detention along with other people has to do with a complaint that I presented, which has to do with a setup and fabrication of facts before the Attorney General's Office of the State of Nuevo León. Unfortunately, I cannot inform the citizenry of these facts at this time, but tomorrow, after the hearing for the imputation of charges, I will tell the people of Nuevo León and all interested parties what are the causes and the evidence that are in this investigation", he pointed out. Today the media is circulating the news of the detention of Karina Barrón, Secretary of Social Development of Monterrey. Tomorrow, after the imputation hearing, I will inform the causes and evidence. She is linked to the complaint I filed for a setup with the NL Prosecutor's Office. I have requested that it be made public.
