Mexico City — Néstor “N”, widely known by his alias “El 20,” was apprehended in Polanco following a meticulous operation conducted by the capital authorities. This significant arrest was confirmed by the Attorney General’s Office of Mexico City (FGJCDMX).
In an official statement, the FGJCDMX highlighted the collaborative efforts and thorough investigations that led to the capture of this prominent figure. “In follow-up to the investigations surrounding a criminal organization operating in the north and west of Mexico City, as well as various municipalities in the State of Mexico, agents of the @PDI_FGJCDMX arrested Néstor “N”, possible leader of said criminal group, for whom Mexican authorities were offering a reward,” the authorities disclosed.
Néstor “N” had been a notorious figure in the criminal landscape of the central region of Mexico, with his operations primarily concentrated in Mexico City (CDMX) and the State of Mexico. His criminal activities had not only drawn the attention of local law enforcement but also of rival criminal factions.
The Jalisco Nueva Generación Cartel (CJNG), one of the most powerful and violent criminal organizations in Mexico, had reportedly targeted Néstor “N” by circulating threatening videos and placing a bounty on his head. This internal strife within the criminal underworld underscored the dangerous and volatile nature of his activities.
The arrest of “El 20” represents a significant victory for the FGJCDMX and law enforcement agencies combating organized crime in Mexico. It also reflects the ongoing efforts to dismantle criminal networks that have long plagued the region.
The FGJCDMX did not disclose specific details of the operation in Polanco, citing the need for confidentiality in ongoing investigations. However, the successful capture of Néstor “N” is expected to yield valuable intelligence on the criminal organization he led, potentially leading to further arrests and disruptions of criminal activities in the area.
This high-profile arrest comes amidst a broader crackdown on organized crime in Mexico, where authorities have been intensifying their efforts to curb the influence and operations of criminal syndicates. The cooperation between different law enforcement entities and the strategic use of intelligence have been pivotal in achieving these outcomes.
The residents of Mexico City and the State of Mexico can find a semblance of relief in the news of Néstor “N”’s arrest, though authorities caution that the fight against organized crime is far from over. Continuous vigilance and robust law enforcement measures remain essential to maintaining public safety and security.
As the investigation progresses, more information is expected to be released, shedding light on the extent of Néstor “N”’s criminal operations and the potential impact of his arrest on the region’s criminal landscape. The FGJCDMX has reaffirmed its commitment to pursuing justice and ensuring that individuals involved in organized crime are held accountable for their actions.
