Members of the Anti-Union Force arrested for drug dealing in Mexico City

Mexican authorities reported this Monday the arrest of Diego Altamirano Vilchis and Derek Abraham Altamirano Vilchis, alias Duro, members of the criminal organization La Fuerza Anti-Union for the crime of drug dealing or trade of illicit drugs on a small scale in the borough Venustiano Carranza, in Mexico City. In a statement, the Secretariat of Security and Citizen Protection (SSPC) specified that during the arrest of Diego 'N', 21 years old, and Derek Abraham 'N', 23 years old, they were also seized six cell phones, various doses of drugs and two identifications. The SSPC detailed that the operation stemmed from the monitoring of the criminal group dedicated to drug dealing in Mexico City, for which security agents carried out desk and field research that allowed them to locate two properties related to the criminal organization. "Fixed and mobile surveillance was implemented to gather evidence that was delivered to a Control Judge, who granted the warrants to intervene in the homes," underlined the document about the two search warrants. The operation was coordinated by elements of the Secretariat of Citizen Security (SSC) and personnel from the SSPC, Secretariat of National Defense (Defense), Secretariat of the Navy (Semar), Attorney General's Office (FGR) and National Guard (GN) in coordination with the Attorney General's Office (FGJ) of the country's capital.
