Overview

• Agents of the Policía de Investigación detained Luis Alberto “N” on August 21 in Santa Úrsula Xitla, Tlalpan.
• He was transferred to the Reclusorio Preventivo Varonil Oriente to await a hearing where a control judge will define his status.
• Prosecutors identify him as the probable leader of “Los Estúpidos,” a group linked to robbery with violence, extortion, homicide, and street-level drug dealing in southern Mexico City.
• The case centers on a July 2020 incident in San Pablo Oztotepec in which a man was allegedly abducted for about three hours after his taxi was intercepted.
• Authorities noted he previously faced a homicide case in liberty after a federal judge modified precautionary measures via an amparo, and they emphasized the presumption of innocence.
