In both searches, the authorities seized personal identification documents, among other evidence related to the commission of the crime.

These operations are derived from anonymous citizen calls to 089 and from previous investigations and interventions in which evidence, statements from witnesses, and detained persons made available to the corresponding authorities have been obtained.

In the searches, conducted by control judges, elements of the Secretariat of Public Security (SSP) assigned to the State Investigation Police (PEI), the Canine Unit (K9), and Citizen Security, in coordination with the State Attorney General’s Office (FGE), participate.

Federal forces include the Army, the Navy, and the National Guard, all to permanently combat this type of crime against health.
