“Doña Rosalinda” “La Jefa”

The Attorney General’s Office (FGR) denied Rosalinda González Valencia, wife of alleged drug trafficker Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes “El Mencho”, leader of the Jalisco Cartel – New Generation (CJNG), to request an evaluation of procedural risks, which would allow her to request her provisional freedom.

The sister of Abigael González Valencia, alias “El Cuini”, also presented an injunction before Guillermo Amaro Correa, head of the Ninth District Court of Morelos, based in Cuernavaca, against the FGR’s refusal, however, the lawsuit was dismissed.

According to the public version of the ruling quoted by the newspaper Reforma, Gonzalez Valencia made a written request to the FGR to ask the National Guard for a procedural risk assessment of her person, “in order to justify the non-continuity and unsuitability of the justified imprisonment imposed”.

However, the FGR responded that it would not request such a study. Therefore, González Valencia filed an injunction against the refusal of the institution of justice, but Amado Correa dismissed it, arguing that there was no violation of the right of petition of the wife of “El Mencho”.

The head of the Ninth District Court of Morelos, based in Cuernavaca, stated that in order for there to be a violation of this constitutional guarantee, more than four months had to pass without the authority responding or issuing an agreement regarding the petition.
