The operation, carried out in Guadeloupe, derived from coordinated work and investigative actions in a follow-up to a criminal cell

As a result of the actions deployed by the corporations that make up the State Table for Peacebuilding and Security to recover tranquility and social peace. A search warrant was completed in the municipality of Guadalupe, which resulted in the arrest of three people and the seizure of weapons, tactical equipment and vehicles.

In follow-up to lines of investigation against criminal groups operating in the state and identified as generators of violence in Guadalupe, Zacatecas and Fresnillo, different field research, cabinet, intelligence analysis and monitoring actions were established, through the SSP Control, Command, Communications and Computing Center (C5).

This made it possible to identify and locate a property that was used by a criminal cell as a safe house, in the municipality of Guadalupe.

For this reason, various investigative techniques were exercised. Once the state and federal authorities submitted the corresponding reports, the judicial search warrant was requested, which was granted and implemented by personnel of the Ministry of Public Security (SSP), the Attorney General's Office of State Justice (FGJE) and the Ministry of National Defense (Sedena).

By completing the search procedure, three males, one of them a minor, were arrested. As well as the seizure of at least six firearms, 24 firearm magazines of different calibers, rounds, ballistic vests, a grenade, chest rigs, magazine pouches, along with a Jeep Grand Cherokee, a Honda motorcycle and other clues.

The detainees, armaments, tactical equipment and vehicles were placed at the disposal of the FGJE, in order to follow the corresponding investigation.
