Eduardo
Esteban Áviles, who was arrested on February 27 in Morelia, Michoacán, along
with seven others including Servando Gómez Martínez “La Tuta”, was an
instructor at the Institute of Evaluation, Training, and Professionalization of
Morelos, the State Security Commission (CES) confirmed.
According to CES, Esteban Áviles was hired in
2014 by the former director of the institute, Guillermo Romero Robles.
“To the former
director of the Institute of Evaluation, Training, and Professionalization of
Morelos, now the State Academy of Higher Studies in Security; Guillermo Romero
Robles was hired at the recommendation of the Commissioner of the Federal
Police in Morelos, Teófilo Gutiérrez Zúñiga, for his academic career and preparation
in the field, as well as fulfilling the requirements in order to acquire the
position of director,” the official statement states.
The
government of Morelos’ version is that, since June 20 2014, the new director, Romero
Robles, was responsible for the recruitment of instructors; he then called Eduardo
Esteban Avilés so that he could be incorporated in that same month of June 2014
as an instructor at the institute in Morelos.
However,
he underwent tests of control de
confianza (confidence control, a test that aims to ensure every officer's
aptitude and trustworthiness) in October but it wasn’t until December when he
was fired for not passing the confidence control tests; despite this, the
government admits that it paid him the months that he worked.
Incidentally,
the institute’s director, Guillermo Romero Robles, resigned four days before
his partner Eduardo Esteban Áviles was arrested in Morelia, along with “La Tuta”.
On March
9, the Second District Court in the State of Veracruz issued a formal arrest
towards the eight men and one woman, including the capo.
To Marcelino
Reyes Sánchez, Juan Manuel Ayala Maldonado and/or Homero Castillo Castillo, alias
Meño and Eduardo Esteban Avilés, for their alleged involvement in committing

authorization.

Against Marcelino
Reyes Sánchez, Juan Manuel Ayala Maldonado and/or Homero Castillo Castillo,
alias Meño, Eduardo Esteban Avilés and Édgar Augusto Ramírez Haro, for their
alleged involvement in the possession of cartridges for the exclusive use of
the Army, Navy, and Air Force.
All of
the men are held in the Federal Social Readaptation Center #5, East, located in
Villa Aldama, Veracruz.
The allegations against Teófilo
On July
2013, the organization Valor por Michoacán accused the former Commissioner of
the Federal Police of Michoacán, Teófilo Gutíerrez Zuñiga, responsible for the
coordination of Sahuayo, Briseñas and Vista Hermosa, of receiving $45,000 from
the head of the plaza of Los Caballeros Templarios, “El Tierno”, whom the
federal government attributes as being in charge of the plaza of Sahuayo.
The
accusation is that Teófilo colluded with the criminal organization in order to
prevent all kinds of operations and checkpoints in the area.
The
Community Guards made their accusation after the military found the names of
the mayors and police, in collusion with organized crime, in the belongings of
the plaza boss of Sahuayo. The
information that they said has already been provided to the PGR for
investigation.
The
Community Guards demanded the dismissal of the head of the federal police, but
had no effect. Months later, he was transferred
to Morelos.

If they can arrest the big fish narcos why can't they arrest the big fish corrupt officials? This guy is a nobody and his arrest does nothing for the people. Catch a Castillo or a Chong and that will spark my interest. Until then these small time "former" this or that arrests will mean nothing.
