The operation was carried out by the Mexican Navy (SEMAR), working with the Secretariat of Security and Citizen Protection (SSPC) and the Attorney General’s Office (FGR).

In addition to the arrests, authorities seized two firearms, magazines, ammunition, $100,000 in cash, cell phones, computers, and two high-end vehicles.
According to Mexican authorities, El Tío is a principal leader and financial operator of a criminal cell aligned with Los Chapitos, the faction led by the sons of Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán, that operates in the municipality of La Cruz de Elota in southern Sinaloa.
