The three were detained in a building “RAIDED” by federal forces in Pueblos Unidos in the early hours of the morning. The operation was carried out by land with units known as “fast” units of the Sedena and also with aerial support from a helicopter.
Unlike the brothers Julián Clemente and Uriel, who were taken to be handed over to the authorities at the Sinaloa Attorney General’s Office (FGR), Luis Felipe was immediately flown to Mexico City from Culiacán International Airport, making him a more important figure within the criminal organization.
They are accused of crimes against health and against the federal firearms law, but no details have been provided on the number of weapons, calibers and type of drugs that were seized at the time of the arrest.
The operation was carried out by members of the Secretariat of National Defense (Sedena) and the Mexican Navy (Semar) in the communities of Pueblos Unidos, Quilá, Emiliano Zapata and El Salado.
