Overview

• Óscar Antonio Álvarez González, also identified as Óscar “N”, was taken into custody inside the Benito Juárez International Airport after arriving from Barcelona, Spain.
• The operation stemmed from Centro Nacional de Inteligencia investigations and an arrest warrant executed by Army and National Guard units with Navy, SSPC and FGR coordination.
• Prosecutors accuse him of organized crime and conducting transactions with illicit resources in the form of receiving and transferring funds.
• Authorities allege he managed purchases of real estate and companies in the tequila and livestock sectors and arranged ownership changes with notaries in Jalisco.
• He was placed at the disposal of the Ministerio Público, and officials present the case as the latest pressure on CJNG alongside recent U.S. Treasury sanctions on its leadership.
