Overview
- FEMDO formally filed the appeal challenging the Sonora control judge’s order that lets Chávez Jr. remain free, and the case now goes to a Tribunal Colegiado for review.
- Judge Enrique Hernández Miranda bound the boxer to process for organized crime and arms trafficking in late August but allowed him to continue the case under precautionary measures.
- Prosecutors argue the release is unlawful because Article 19 of the Constitution requires mandatory preventive detention for organized crime and related weapons offenses.
- The FGR presented 21 pieces of evidence at linkage, including wiretaps from 2020–2023, informant testimony and a DEA report, while the defense says only a subset directly involves Chávez Jr.
- Chávez Jr., deported from the United States in mid‑August and released from Cefereso No. 11, remains under a travel ban as the complementary investigation runs toward a November 24 hearing.
