The arrest took place on the morning of this Saturday, January 22, between Pedro Rosales de León and Montebello streets in Ciudad Juárez. Likewise, it was a Judge of First Instance in Criminal Matters of the Accusatory and Oral Criminal System of the Saltillo Judicial District who released the arrest warrant.
Both elements of the Coahuila State Prosecutor's Office (FGE) in coordination with the AEI North Zone managed to find the location of Abuelo, who is known to be head of the Cartel del Noreste in three states in the north of the country.
The person involved was made available to the corresponding authorities to answer for the crimes attributed to him. It is known that he was a plaza boss of the Los Zetas criminal group from 2008 to 2012. Press reports point out that Gallardo Santiago escaped from a prison in Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas in 2006 with 10 more inmates and they staged a shootout that left four dead, this is one of the reasons why Gallardo is considered to have a highly dangerous profile.
In this sense, another record indicates that in May 2016, elements of the AEI detained Timoteo Gallardo in the municipality of Escobedo, Nuevo León.

ReplyDeleteNo shet Sherlock!
DeleteCdn is not expandinh how they are trying to make it out to be. They are losing ground because the CDG/CJNG alliances in Tamaulipas, NL and Zac.
ReplyDeletePrimito is the head of CDG Metros but its well knowm through the streets of those states that many Cmdts and Jefes de plaza are leaving CDN and the other CDG factions to join CDG Primito/R8 . Primito has CDV on his side, has Samuel Garcia on his side and has Menchos political and Govt protection as well . Primito wether ppl admit it or not is El Bueno of the CDG territories sim ppl y because of the alliances hes forged and the political protection he has
CDN is losing power and are getting desperate offering alliances to others out of necessity. They are sending their men to other wars to fight for plazas that dont pwrtain to them out of need. As far as those mantas in Morelos and wherever else theyve appeared i believe its simply other cartels attempting to heat up the plaza, or could be simply a journalist that had it hung so they could sell a story. Whatever it is , i doubt it was CDN in actuality. They may have presence in other states but its basically drugs sale poimts or neccessary logistical points where shipments stop before goimg further north into ther hands. You never hear of them in caravans or making attacks in other states besides Tamaulipas
Even in NL, when they atyempt to enter in carvan they are killed or it goes real bad for them. Maybe in Cohuila they have a bit more presence than NL but nothing compared to nuevo laredo and Tamaulipas as awhole
Shit even ZVE seems to have a higher presence overall not only in the state of Tamaulipas but also the entire country. ZVE has presence in Cohuila, NL, Tam, SLP, VRCRZ, Hdgo,
Tabasco, Cmpeche, Agsc. Even though in all those lacarions besides TAM and some cells in other states have switched and completely took the cjng name they hold more presence than cdn does
Zve is not united like it was And cdn is getting fetty and glass from los chapitos for support in Zac fyi
DeleteI have heard anything about Zetas Old school since el Rex was killed...is el pitula still the leader?
DeleteCDG better be careful with CJNG because they might be pushed aside if they want the Reynosa corridor and CDN should align with Matamoros if they are losing ground they should keep control of N Laredo their main headquarters forget Monterey or Camargo they should regroup of cdg is asking Jalisco for help
DeleteYou guys think metros could become Nueva generation too? I bet primitos tempted
DeleteWas he arrested in Juarez Coahuila or Nuevo Leon? I'm almost certain he was not arrested in Cd. Juarez, Chih.....
ReplyDeleteThe cross streets mentioned for the arrest are in Juarez, Chihuahua

ReplyDeleteWhat is the red powder/dye that is on him and the officer beside him In some of the above pics? Looks like a dyepak exoded but may e its just a reflection or the sun at an odd angle?
ReplyDeleteIf you are referring to the red seen in this:
Deletehttps://eldiariodecoahuila.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/39-5-1024x682.jpg
I believe it is just the reflection of a red light.
That is what I was referring to and upon looking closer I think you're correct about it being a red-light reflection
DeleteThe mugshots look like two completely different people--
ReplyDeleteThe censored mug shot is from the current arrest (2022) the uncensored mugshot is from 2016. Made a note of that on the photos.
Deleteyes, but facial structure and hairline are completely different.
Delete2:54 socalj already gave the explanation, what you want a home visit?
DeleteAt 851 home visit.lol
Delete@8:51 I know they're two separate mugshots. They look like two completely different people. Hairline and facial structure- skin complexion are completely different.
Delete10:20 get over it, go eat a hamburger with fries.
Delete1020. Clearly in the older mugshot, he is sunburned. Cant tell the hairlines as its pixelated, but if you look at the color of those pixels of skin and hair, the hairlines pretty similar. He has a round face that is consistent in both, and looks like hes heavier now 5 years later.
DeleteYippieeee bit unfortunately he will be let out soon by a curupt judge, that weights 350 pounds.
