Judge Orders 30-Hour Arrest for Alfredo Adame Over Violations in Magaly Chávez Case

The sanction follows alleged breaches of a court protection order obtained by Chávez, with Mexico City police assigned to enforce it.

Overview

  • Control judge César Augusto Mendoza Salazar issued the 30-hour custodial order following a Jan. 12 hearing to ratify protective measures.
  • Chávez’s legal team cited repeated noncompliance, including public comments in which Adame allegedly denied the victim’s gender identity.
  • The Mexico City Secretariat of Citizen Security is expected to detain and present Adame in the coming days to serve the sanction.
  • The communiqué warns that any new public aggression could lead to a criminal case carrying potentially multi‑year prison terms.
  • As of publication, Adame had not made a public statement, and the case has renewed attention on enforcement of protection measures in gender-based violence complaints.
